When presomitic mesoderm (PSM) that would ordinarily form thoracic somites is transplanted into a region in a younger embryo (caudal to the first somite) that would ordinarily give rise to cervical (neck) somites, the grafted mesoderm differentiates according to its original position and forms ribs in the neck. This phenomena is called as:
