Abstract excerpt
Rows of cells that flank the parasegment boundary make up a signaling center within the epidermis of the Drosophila embryo. Signals emanating from these cells, encoded by hedgehog (hh) and wingless (wg), are shown to be required for all segment pattern dorsally. Wg activity is required for the differentiation of one cell type, constituting half the parasegment. The gene lines appears to act in parallel to the Wg...
