“In the early Drosophila embryo, the establishment of different body regionor tissues along, on the one hand, the anteroposterior axis and, on theother, the dorsoventral axis are initiated by clues provided by the egg’smother; however the nature of those signals and the way in which theyoperate is completely different”. Discuss whether this statement is correct.
It seems that developmental genetics boils down to a complex network of gene regulation. Try to draw a structure of this network for Drosophila. How many genes do you think are necessary to complete the developmental network for the fruit fly? How many genes do you think are needed for a network to specify one segment? Do you think it is more difficult to identify genes that are involved in the beginning, middle, or end of this network? Suppose you were trying to identify all of the genes needed for development in a chicken. Knowing what you know about Drosophila development, would you first try to identify genes necessary for early development, or would you begin by identifying genes involved in cell differentiation?
William Jeffrey and his colleagues crossed surface-dwelling Mexican tetras that had fully developed eyes with cave-dwelling blind Mexican tetras. The progeny from this cross had uniformly small eyes compared with those of surface fish (Y. Yamamoto, D. W. Stock, and W. R. Jeffrey. 2004. Nature 431:844–847). What prediction can you make about the expression of shh in these progeny at the embryonic stage relative to its expression in embryonic surface fish?
In the late 1980s, this gradient hypothesis was united with a genetic approach to the study of Drosophila embryogenesis. If there were gradients, what were the morphogens whose concentrations changed over space?
