Control of Sequential Compartment Formation in Drosophila: A uniform mechanism may control the locations of successive binary developmental commitments.
Abstract
During development of Drosophila melanogaster , sequential commitment to alternative development programs occurs in neighboring groups of cells. These commitments appear to be reflected by lines of clonal restriction, called compartmental boundaries, which progressively subdivide the early embryo, and later the imaginal discs, which give rise to different adult appendages. We propose that a reaction-diffusion system acts throughout development and generates a sequence of differently shaped chemical patterns. These patterns account for the sequence and geometries of compartmental boundaries, and predict that each terminal compartment is specified by a unique combination of binary choices made during its formation. This binary "code" interprets coherently the patterned metaplasia seen in transdetermination and homeotic mutations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
