  - Embryo development requires biochemical signalling to generate patterns of cell
    fates and active mechanical forces to drive tissue shape changes. However, how
    these processes are coordinated, and how tissue patterning is preserved despite
    the cellular flows occurring during morphogenesis, remains poorly understood.
    Gastrulation is a crucial embryonic stage that involves both patterning and internalization
    of the mesendoderm germ layer tissue. Here we show that, in zebrafish embryos,
    a gradient in Nodal signalling orchestrates pattern-preserving internalization
    movements by triggering a motility-driven unjamming transition. In addition to
    its role as a morphogen determining embryo patterning, graded Nodal signalling
    mechanically subdivides the mesendoderm into a small fraction of highly protrusive
    leader cells, able to autonomously internalize via local unjamming, and less protrusive
    followers, which need to be pulled inwards by the leaders. The Nodal gradient
    further enforces a code of preferential adhesion coupling leaders to their immediate
    followers, resulting in a collective and ordered mode of internalization that
    preserves mesendoderm patterning. Integrating this dual mechanical role of Nodal
    signalling into minimal active particle simulations quantitatively predicts both
    physiological and experimentally perturbed internalization movements. This provides
    a quantitative framework for how a morphogen-encoded unjamming transition can
    bidirectionally couple tissue mechanics with patterning during complex three-dimensional
    morphogenesis.@eng
