Abstract excerpt
Pattern formation in the eye imaginal disc of Drosophila occurs in a wave that moves from posterior to anterior. The anterior edge of this wave is marked by a contracted band of cells known as the morphogenetic furrow, behind which photoreceptors differentiate. The movement of the furrow is depen...
