Abstract excerpt
The homeotic gene abdominal-A (abd-A) is normally expressed in parasegments 7 to 13. We find that the initial distribution of the product is approximately uniform within this domain, but the subsequent elaboration of the expression pattern results in differences between, as well as within, parasegments. We have investigated the possible role of several pair-rule, e.g. fushi tarazu, even-skipped, runt, hairy,...
