Molecular genetics of axial patterning, growth and disease in drosophila eye / Amit Singh, Madhuri Kango-Singh, editors.

Drosophila melanogaster (fruit fly) is a highly versatile model with a genetic legacy of more than a century. It provides powerful genetic, cellular, biochemical and molecular biology tools to address many questions extending from basic biology to human diseases. One of the most important questions...
