title: Early developmental subdivisions of the wing disk in Drosophila.
abstract: The properties of the mutation wingless discovered by Sharma are discussed. It appears that this mutation interferes with a step leading to normal wing-notum compartmentation of the wing disk. From the study of mutational mosaics in the wingless locus we conclude that mutations in this gene can be autonomous in mosaics.
