Preferred Label : neural rod;
Uberon definition : A solid rod of neurectoderm derived from the neural keel. The neural rod is roughly
circular in cross section. Neural rod formation occurs during primary neurulation
in teleosts[GO]. An intermediate stage in the development of the central nervous system
present during the segmentation period; the neural rod is roughly cylindrical in shape,
forms from the neural keel, and is not yet hollowed out into the neural tube[ZFIN].;
