Abstract excerpt
During early embryogenesis of Drosophila the spatial and temporal expression patterns of the region-specific homeotic gene spalt (sal) and the neighbouring gene spalt adjacent (sala) extensively overlap. We show that the initial expression patterns of the two genes in the blastoderm also have ide...
