Stage-specific control of stem cell niche architecture in the Drosophila testis by the posterior Hox gene Abd-B

A fundamental question in biology is how complex structures are maintained after their initial specification. We address this question by reviewing the role of the Hox gene Abd-B in Drosophila testis organogenesis, which proceeds through embryonic, larval and pupal stages to reach maturation in adul...
