Patterning with clocks and genetic cascades: Segmentation and regionalization of vertebrate versus insect body plans

M Diaz-Cuadros, O Pourquié, E El-Sherif - PLoS Genetics, 2021 - journals.plos.org
Oscillatory and sequential processes have been implicated in the spatial patterning of many
embryonic tissues. For example, molecular clocks delimit segmental boundaries in …

[HTML][HTML] Speeding up anterior-posterior patterning of insects by differential initialization of the gap gene cascade

H Rudolf, C Zellner, E El-Sherif - Developmental biology, 2020 - Elsevier
Recently, it was shown that anterior-posterior patterning genes in the red flour beetle
Tribolium castaneum are expressed sequentially in waves. However, in the fruit fly …
