U. Schmidtott et al., EXPRESSION OF ENGRAILED IN EMBRYOS OF A BEETLE AND 5 DIPTERAN SPECIESWITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO THE TERMINAL REGIONS, Roux's archives of developmental biology, 203(6), 1994, pp. 298-303
The engrailed expression in embryos of a beetle, four midges and a fly
has been analysed with special reference to the terminal regions. In
all six species the segmental expression pattern is very similar but v
ariability occurs in the clypeolabrum, foregut and hindgut. In some ca
ses, segmental engrailed expression seems to be extended into the hind
- and/or foregut. The engrailed expression of these species is compare
d with published data from other insects.
