Abstract: | Summary The mutant hairy (h) increases the number of sensillae on theDrosophila wing. This allows us to quantify a gradient that determines the type of sense organ that forms along the third long vein. Temperature significantly shifts the positional responses to this underlying gradient.This research was supported by National Science Foundation grant BSR-8300025. We thank Laura Karcher for the figure. |
