...What is clear, is that cell cycle length affects the length and number of transcripts that are produced in Drosophila and zebrafish embryos (Edgar and Schubiger, 1986; Hadzhiev et al., 2019; Rothe et al., 1992; Dalle Nogare et al., 2009)....

...In this context, it is interesting to note that, in Drosophila and zebrafish, zygotic transcription begins in two distinct areas in the nucleus (Blythe and Wieschaus, 2016; Chan et al., 2018 preprint; Chen et al., 2013; Hadzhiev et al., 2019; Hilbert et al., 2018 preprint; Hug et al., 2017), which may cause a local increase in the concentration of transcription factors, thereby facilitating transcription....

...elegans, Xenopus, zebrafish and Drosophila, the first zygotic transcripts are detected in cell cycles 2, 3, 6 and 8, respectively (Chan et al., 2018 preprint; Collart et al., 2014; De Renzis et al., 2007; Edgar et al., 1994; Hadzhiev et al., 2019; Heyn et al., 2014; Hilbert et al., 2018 preprint; Kimelman et al., 1987; Kwasnieski et al., 2019 preprint; Lécuyer et al., 2007; Lott et al., 2011; Mathavan et al., 2005; Owens et al., 2016; Paranjpe et al., 2013; Seydoux and Fire, 1994; Skirkanich et al., 2011; Tan et al., 2013; Yanai et al., 2011; Yang et al., 2002), although there is some genetic evidence that transcription may begin earlier in Drosophila (Ali-Murthy et al....
