title: Molecular mechanisms in developmental biology.
abstract: Some general molecular mechanisms underlying development are described. Namely: those involved in the differentiation of the R7 receptor in Drosophila embryonic retina; those involved in the determination of embryonic axes and in polar cell differentiation, in Drosophila; those involved in the determination of the AB and P cell lineage and in vulva differentiation in Caenorhabditis embryos.
