The specification of the anterior−posterior axis in
Drosophila embryos is initially controlled by various gene
products that are synthesized and stored in the mature egg
following oogenesis. Mutations in these genes result in
abnormalities of the axis during embryogenesis, illustrating
maternal effect.
How do such mutations vary from those involved in organelle
heredity that illustrate extranuclear inheritance?
