Developmental and Genetic Studies of the Indirect Flight Muscles of Drosophila Melanogaster

  • Chapter
Development and Neurobiology of Drosophila

Part of the book series: Basic Life Sciences ((BLSC,volume 16))

Abstract

These studies were undertaken with the aim of investigating myogenesis in Drosophila with the special emphasis on the embryonic origin of precursor cells and the establishment of the ultrastructural organization during muscle differentiation.
