Abstract excerpt

During the anterior-posterior fate specification of insects, anterior fates arise in a nonelongating tissue (called the "blastoderm"), and posterior fates arise in an elongating tissue (called the "germband"). However, insects differ widely in the extent to which anterior-posterior fates are specified in the blastoderm versus the germband. Here we present a model in which patterning in both the blastoderm and...
