Variation in mesoderm specification across Drosophilids is compensated by different rates of myoblast fusion during body wall musculature development.
BACKGROUND: It has been shown that species separated by relatively short evolutionary distances may have extreme variations in egg size and shape. Those variations are expected to modify the polarized morphogenetic gradients that pattern the dorso-ventral axis of embryos. Currently, little is known...
