Abstract excerpt
Several lines of evidence suggest that the origin of pattern formation of Drosophila embryos must be traced back to oogenesis, to the polarity of the egg chamber. A few early-acting genes, K10, top, grk and cni, have been identified which are assumed to function in a signal transduction process b...
