The molecular basis for metameric pattern in the Drosophila embryo
M Akam - Development, 1987 - journals.biologists.com

Mitotic domains reveal early commitment of cells in Drosophila embryos
VE Foe - Development, 1989 - journals.biologists.com
In embryos of Drosophila melanogaster all the nuclei in the syncytial egg divide with global
