Dorsal-ventral axis

St. Johnston, R. D., and Gelbart, W. M, (1987). Decapentaplegic transcripts are localized along the dorsal-ventral axis of the Drosophila embryo. EMBO J. 6 2785-2791. [Pg.47]

We turn now to determination of the anterior/posterior axis in the early fly embryo while it is still a syncytium. As in determination of the dorsal/ventral axis, specification of anterior/posterior cell fate begins during oogenesis. The initial asymmetry also involves so-called maternal mRNAs, which are produced by nurse cells and transported into the oocyte. In this case they become localized in discrete spatial domains (see Figure 15-14). For example, bicoid mRNA is trapped at the most anterior region, or anterior pole, of the early fly embryo (Figure 15-19). The anterior localization of... [Pg.629]

Dorsal-ventral axis. Dorsal refers to the back of the fish and ventral refers to the belly of the fish. The dorsal-ventral axis is the axis from the back to the belly. [Pg.343]
