Abstract excerpt
Programmed cell death plays an essential role in the normal embryonic development of Drosophila melanogaster. One region of the embryo where cell death occurs, but has not been studied in detail, is the abdominal epidermis. Because cell death is a fleeting process, we have used time-lapse, fluore...
