Significance of Studies on Drosophila Development
May 17, 2024 | by Bloom Code Studio
- Drosophila and human development are homologous processes.
They utilize closely related genes working in highly conserved regulatory networks. - Unlike humans, Drosophila is subject to easy genetic manipulation.
- As a result, most of what we know about the molecular basis of animal development has come from studies of model systems such as Drosophila.
