Table 2.

Mutations in key genes belonging to the Notch, Wnt, and Fgf signaling pathways and subsequent phenotype observed in the expression of genes involved either in the molecular clock or in the wavefront of differentiation. Only mutations bringing insight into the putative cross-talk between pathways are indicated.
