Abstract excerpt
One major problem in developmental biology is the identification of the mechanisms that control the final size of tissues and organs. We are addressing this issue in the imaginal discs of Drosophila by analysing the response to blocking cell division in large domains in the wing and leg discs. The affected domains may be zones of restricted lineage like compartments, or zones of open lineage that may integrate...
