Head of a wild type fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) compared to an Antennapedia mutant in which the antennae are replaced by a pair of middle legs.

|
Expression of the fushi tarazu gene as detected by in situ hybridization. The messenger RNA forms a pattern of 7 stripes, expressed in every other parasegment of the early Drosophila embryo reflecting the segmental body plan.
|
|
Expression of the engrailed gene in the posterior compartment of every body segment of the Drosophila embryo.
