The mechanism of evagination of imaginal discs of Drosophila melanogaster. 1. General considerations.

TLDR
A model for the evagination of appendages from imaginal discs which requires both cell flattening and cell rearrangement is presented and some implications of the model for mosaic and cell lineage studies are discussed.

The mechanical basis of morphogenesis. I. Epithelial folding and invagination.

TL;DR: The objective of this paper is to demonstrate that the model, based on the local behavior of individual cells, generates a propagating contraction wave which is sufficient to explain the globally coherent morphogenetic infolding of a wide variety of embryonic epithelia.

Polarized Transport of Frizzled along the Planar Microtubule Arrays in Drosophila Wing Epithelium

TL;DR: The mechanisms that place one of the components, Frizzled (Fz), at the distal side of the Drosophila wing cells acquire planar polarity along the proximal-distal (P-D) axis are pursued.
Journal ArticleDOI

The emergence of sense organs in the wing disc of Drosophila

TL;DR: The origin of a set of precisely located sense organs in the notum and wing of Drosophila, in transformant flies where lacZ is expressed in the progenitor cells of the sense organs (the sensory mother cells) and in their progeny is examined.

Roles for Rac1 and Cdc42 in planar polarization and hair outgrowth in the wing of Drosophila.

TL;DR: It is found that Cdc42 is required for localized actin polymerization in the extending hair and that apical junctions and microtubules are involved in structural aspects of hair outgrowth.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structure and development of antennae in a moth, Manduca sexta☆

TL;DR: The dense innervation and neuronal simplicity of antennal flagella, as well as their synchronous development at a late and accessible stage in the animal's life cycle, suit them for studies of neuronal differentiation.

Microfilaments in Cellular and Developmental Processes

TL;DR: The overall conclusion is that a broad spectrum of cellular and developmental processes are caused by contractile apparatuses that have at least the common feature of being sensitive to cytochalasin.

A Technique of Transplantation for Drosophila

TL;DR: A technique of transplantation, applicable to Drosophila species, which consists of injection by means of a micro-pipette, is described in some detail.

Death in Embryonic Systems

TL;DR: The present exploration has revealed that death during embryogenesis serves utilitarian goals in some instances, at least, that its occurrence is subject to control by factors of the immediate cellular and humoral environment.

Formation of arrowhead complexes with heavy meromyosin in a variety of cell types.

TL;DR: The significance of HMM-filament binding is discussed in view of the finding that arrowhead complexes form in types of cells not usually thought to contain actin filaments.
