Abstract
The discovery of the homeobox as a highly conserved DNA-binding motif found in homeotic and other genes involved in the control of Drosophila development has dramatically changed developmental biology. It has now become clear that whereas morphologically Drosophila and mammalian embryos develop very differently, the genetic control of their development has many similarities.Keywords
