...Nipam H. Patel; David C. Hayward; Sabbi Lall; Nicole R. Pirkl; Daniel DiPietro; Eldon E. Ball While the expression patterns of segment polarity genes such as engrailed have been shown to be similar in Drosophila melanogaster and Schistocerca americana (grasshopper), the expression patterns of pair...

...-neuro, a gene expressed later in the developing nervous system. Using a crossreactive antibody, we show that the embryonic expression of Pax group III genes in both the flour beetle Tribolium and the grasshopper Schistocerca is remarkably similar to the pattern in Drosophila . We also show that two Pax...
