Embryo polarity in moth flies and mosquitoes relies on distinct old genes with localized transcript isoforms

eLife, 2019
Unrelated genes establish head-to-tail polarity in embryos of different fly species, raising the question of how they evolve this function. We show that in moth flies (Clogmia, Lutzomyia), a maternal transcript isoform of odd-paired (Zic) is localized in
