Abstract
Recessive oncogenes have genetic functions important for the regulatio n of tissue growth and differentiation. Defining the role of these gen es in normal developmental and physiological processes is important to the development of the accurate models of the normal regulation of gr owth and differentiation: We report here a genetic analysis of the req uirement for the lethal (2) giant larva function during development. T he results demonstrate that the lethal (2) giant larva function is req uired during embryonic and post-embryonic development to maintain the normal developmental capacity.
