Secrets of metamorphosis: Study reveals gene expression model during fly development
Researchers have studied gene expression dynamics during metamorphosis in two species of flies. Published in the Genome Biology and Evolution, the study aims to identify patterns of changes in gene activity during insect development that undergo complete metamorphosis—from egg to larva, pupa, and adult. The research team is from Skoltech, Koltzov Institute of Developmental Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences and the Engelhardt Institute of Molecular Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
