The refinement of the dorsoventral pattern on the dorsal side involves a long range signalling process, unlike the series of prepatterns of transcription factors observed along the anteroposterior axis (40).    From Wordnik.com.  [Nobel Lecture The Identification Of Genes Controlling Development In Flies And Fishes] Reference

The subsequent phenotypic analysis and molecular cloning of many of these genes, and investigation into the interactions of their products, resulted in a rather complete general picture of the mechanisms establishing the anteroposterior and the dorsoventral axis of the early embryo.    From Wordnik.com.  [Nobel Lecture The Identification Of Genes Controlling Development In Flies And Fishes] Reference

The maternal control of the dorsoventral pattern is achieved by only one group of genes that establish a nuclear localization gradient, with its maximum at the ventral side, of a transcription factor that functions both as a repressor of dorsally expressed genes and an activator of ventrally expressed genes (17), (19).    From Wordnik.com.  [Nobel Lecture The Identification Of Genes Controlling Development In Flies And Fishes] Reference
