Muscles in the Drosophila second thoracic segment are patterned independently of autonomous homeotic gene function.

Current biology : CB - 1 Apr 1997

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: In Drosophila, segment-specific muscle pattern is thought to be determined by the autonomous function of homeotic selector genes in the mesoderm in combination with inductive cues from the developing epidermis and nervous system. Here, we have examined the roles of homeotic genes in t...
