Lecture 7 • Advanced epistasis • Ectopic expression in Drosophila • Morphogens: secreted ligands Epistasis headless twinhead Epistasis headless hl twinhead th phenotype hl lf no head; two tails th lf no tail; two heads Epistasis headless hl twinhead th phenotype Head Tail hl lf no head; two tails th lf no tail; two heads Advanced Epistasis Why do I always assume that the most epistatic step is at the end of the pathway? Advanced Epistasis Why do I always assume that the most epistatic step is at the end of the pathway? Can we always assume this?
