Application of temperature-sensitive mutations to oncogene studies in Drosophila.

Abstract excerpt

Recessive oncogenes are genetic functions important in the regulation of tissue growth and differentiation. These genetic functions are defined on the basis of the phenotype expressed by homozygotes. Defining the role of these genes in normal developmental and physiological processes is important to the development of accurate models of the normal regulation of growth and differentiation. Drosophila can be a good...
