Abstract excerpt
We have examined the patterns of expression of the homeotic gene Ubx in imaginal discs of Drosophila larvae carrying mutations in the abx, bx and pbx regulatory domains. In haltere discs, all five bx insertion mutations examined led to a general reduction in Ubx expression in the anterior compartment; for a given allele, the strength of the adult cuticle phenotype correlated with the degree of Ubx reduction....
