Genetic organization of Drosophila bithorax complex.

Nature - 1 Jan 2000

Sánchez-Herrero E, Vernós I, Marco R, Morata G

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila bithorax complex is subdivided into three major genes: Ultrabithorax+, abdominal-A+ and Abdominal-B+. Each of these genes plays its principal part in a particular anatomical domain of the body, where it is specifically required to determine the correct segmental pattern.
