Multiple Wnt genes are required for segmentation in the short-germ embryo of Tribolium castaneum.

Current biology : CB - 28 Oct 2008

Bolognesi Renata, Farzana Laila, Fischer Tamara D, Brown Susan J

Abstract excerpt

wingless (wg)/Wnt family are essential to development in virtually all metazoans. In short-germ insects, including the red flour beetle (Tribolium castaneum), the segment-polarity function of wg is conserved [1]. Wnt signaling is also implicated in posterior patterning and germband elongation [2-4], but despite its expression in the posterior growth zone, Wnt1/wg alone is not responsible for these functions...
