125 u/ElSapio 29d ago Probably not a germline mutation, looks like a signal pathway mutation that happened in the embryo 72 u/akrebsel 29d ago How can you tell? I’m taking a developmental biology course right now and am genuinely curious 17 u/ElSapio 29d ago Because it’s localized to one segment. Could be a gap gene or hedgehog problem 4 u/akrebsel 29d ago Ah okay thank you So it’s kind of similar to Ultrabithorax in drosophila? 5 u/ElSapio 29d ago Exactly! I could be wrong though, I was more into molecular biology 3 u/akrebsel 29d ago Okay cool, maybe ill do some research on it Thanks a bunch though, I appreciate your insight! 3 u/kgm2s-2 29d ago I'd guess hbox, based on the similarity to bicoid (but in reverse). 1 u/Rule34NoExceptions2 27d ago It's a chicken, not a hedgehog
