  • This Developmental Biology paper, Microtubule-mediated transport of organelles and localization of β-catenin to the future dorsal side of Xenopus eggs, mentions that "if a normal [toad] egg is manually tipped or centrifuged midway through the first cell cycle to force a second rotation, a second axis can be produced, leading in the most dramatic cases to a two-headed tadpole".
