Expression of honey bee hh and wingless (wg) in embryos. Embryos are oriented anterior-left, dorsal-up. Scale bars, 100 μm. (A) hh RNA expression in a stage 10 embryo. Honey bee hh is expressed in a stripe of cells in the posterior of each segment, a pattern similar to the expression of engrailed-like proteins (Fleig 1990) and e30 and e60 mRNA (Osborne and Dearden 2005b). (B) Magnification of the gnathal segments of a stage 10 embryo stained for honey bee hh RNA. hh RNA is located in the posterior of each limb bud. (C) Honey bee wg RNA expression in a stage 9 embryo. wg RNA is expressed in a stripe of cells in each segment. (D) Magnification of the gnathal segments of a stage 9 embryo stained for wg RNA showing expression in a stripe of cells running across the middle of each limb bud.
