Anatomy
A region of tissue that is partially delimited by a compartment boundary during its development. A compartment boundary is a sharp, stable boundary through a developing tissue that cells do not cross during development and that typically has no morphological correlate. The cells comprising the compartment form a population defined by their inability to cross the compartment boundary. (Irvine and Rauskolb, 2001)
