This embryo then undergoes three distinct larval stages, eventually maturing into an adult Drosophila. Development of an adult fly only takes 10 days from fertilization. The female fly can produce ...

Recent research from the Developmental and Regulatory Genomics group showed that the 3D genome structure of the Drosophila embryo was established at the onset of zygotic genome activation, an early ...

It could be indicative of active transcriptional repression, or it could prepare genes for activation at later stages of embryogenesis ... that genes in Drosophila embryos are found in three ...

In an animal's embryonic stage, these gene switches play a predominant ... In this slide show, you'll see a striking example–in that lab standard Drosophila melanogaster, the fruit fly–of ...

The lab conducted perhaps the most comprehensive look yet at changes in translation and protein synthesis during a developmental change, using the oocyte-to-embryo transition in Drosophila as a ...
