Two theories address the origin of repeating patterns, such as hair follicles, limb digits, and intestinal villi, during development. The Turing reaction–diffusion system posits that interacting diffusible signals produced by static cells first define a prepattern that then induces cell rearrangements to produce an anatomical structure. The second theory, that of mesenchymal self-organisation, proposes that mobile cells can form periodic patterns of cell aggregates directly, without reference to any prepattern. Early hair follicle development is characterised by the rapid appearance of periodic arrangements of altered gene expression in the epidermis and prominent clustering of the adjacent dermal mesenchymal cells. We assess the contributions and interplay between reaction–diffusion and mesenchymal self-organisation processes in hair follicle patterning, identifying a network of fibroblast growth factor (FGF), wingless-related integration site (WNT), and bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling interactions capable of spontaneously producing a periodic pattern. Using time-lapse imaging, we find that mesenchymal cell condensation at hair follicles is locally directed by an epidermal prepattern. However, imposing this prepattern’s condition of high FGF and low BMP activity across the entire skin reveals a latent dermal capacity to undergo spatially patterned self-organisation in the absence of epithelial direction. This mesenchymal self-organisation relies on restricted transforming growth factor (TGF) β signalling, which serves to drive chemotactic mesenchymal patterning when reaction–diffusion patterning is suppressed, but, in normal conditions, facilitates cell movement to locally prepatterned sources of FGF. This work illustrates a hierarchy of periodic patterning modes operating in organogenesis. Repeating anatomical units, forming a pattern, are present in different parts of the body. This is particularly obvious in the skin, where the many hair follicles become regularly arranged and fixed in place in the embryo as a pattern of evenly spaced spots. The basis for the formation of such repeating patterns has attracted a number of theoretical explanations. One influential theory is that cells first issue chemical signals to one another to produce a map of the pattern, which they then follow to assemble a structure, like a hair follicle. Alternative theories instead suggest that cells cluster together directly, without reference to a pre-existing map, to drive pattern formation. In this study, we find that a set of chemical signals known to be important for early hair follicle formation form a network capable of producing a patterned template to which cells then respond, moving according to its instructions. This supports the signal-based theory for pattern formation. Strikingly, though, by imposing the conditions of the incipient hair follicle evenly across the entire skin, we reveal that skin cells can also form patterns directly by coalescing, without requiring instructions from a pre-existing pattern. However, this ability of cells to pattern directly is normally subservient to their following of a quickly forming pattern template defined by chemical signals. This work highlights that different ways of making biological patterns can coexist in the same embryonic organ but that one is normally subordinated to the other.
