zpl, a new gene in drosophila required for neurogenesis
zpl (zip-like) gene mutant embryos showed the cuticular defect with alternative denticle rows and a hole from head to abdomen. zpl mutants also caused the overgrowth of neural cells and axons both in CNS and P...

The Mirror transcription factor links signalling pathways in Drosophila oogenesis
Many genetic cascades are conserved in evolution, yet they trigger different responses and hence determine different cell fates at specific times and positions in development. At stage 10 of oogenesis, mirror is ...
