Note(s) : Undoubtedly, Drosophila melanogaster, fruit fly, has proven to be one of the most
popular invertebrate model organisms, and the work horse for modern day biologists.
Drosophila, a highly versatile model with a genetic legacy of more than a century,
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 in biology focuses on: how does a multi-cellular organism develop from a
single-celled embryo? The discovery of the genes responsible for pattern formation
has helped refine this question. Drosophila eye model has been extensively used to
study molecular genetic mechanisms involved in patterning and growth. Since the genetic
machinery involved in the Drosophila eye is similar to humans, it has been used to
model human diseases and homology to eyes in other taxa. This book will discuss molecular
genetic mechanisms of pattern formation, axial patterning, growth regulation in Drosophila
eye, and more
