Uberon definition : A segment of the developing hindbrain[ZFA]. In the vertebrate embryo, a rhombomere
is a transiently divided segment of the developing neural tube, within the hindbrain
region (a neuromere) in the area that will eventually become the rhombencephalon.
The rhombomeres appear as a series of slightly constricted swellings in the neural
tube, caudal to the cephalic flexure.[WP].;
Uberon related term : rhombomeres; future rhombencephalon;
Uberon broad term : segment of hindbrain; hindbrain segment;
Uberon Homology note : Rhombomeric segmentation is found in all living vertebrates and is of fundamental
importance to the development of the vertebrate head.[well established][VHOG];
Uberon Taxon note : In human embryonic development, the rhombomeres are present by day 29;
