  • Wing Imaginal Disc Dpp

    How does morphogen transport in a growing tissue feed back on tissue growth through morphogen signaling and cell division? Introduction The Drosophila wing primordium is a two-dimensional epithelial tissue that grows in response to the concentration profile of the morphogen Dpp (see Fig.

  • Segmentation

    Autoregulatory multicellular incoherent feedforward loop (mIFFL) that generates the 7-stripe even-skipped (eve) expression pattern in Drosophila melanogaster embryogenesis Introduction This model demonstrates the influence of maternal effect genes and gap genes on the even-skipped (eve) gene.
