Abstract excerpt
Cytoplasm from wildtype Drosophila embryos was transplanted into torso (tor) mutant embryos to determine the distribution of terminal rescuing activity at the cleavage stage. Although posterior and lateral wildtype cytoplasm contained rescuing activity that restored posterior terminal (telson) structures Klingler et al. (1988, Nature (London) 335, 275-277) this rescuing activity was not found in anterior...
