Abstract excerpt
During Drosophila development, the salivary primordia are internalized to form the salivary gland tubes. By analyzing immuno-stained histological sections and scanning electron micrographs of multiple stages of salivary gland development, we show that internalization occurs in a defined series of steps, involves coordinated cell shape changes and begins with the dorsal-posterior cells of the primordia. The...
