The HD and CterC region do not confer AbdA character in the VM. Effects of uniform expression of Ubx, abdA, and chimera A on dpp and wg transcription in the VM. Ubx induces ectopic dpp expression (A) and leaves wg expression unaffected (B). abdA represses dpp (C) and induces anterior ectopic expression of wg (D). White bars and arrows indicate the wild-type expression domain of dpp (PS3–4 and PS7) and wg (PS8), respectively. Black arrows show the sites of ectopic expression. In the VM, chimera A phenocopies the effects of uniform Ubx expression: it ectopically activates dpp (E), although somewhat less efficiently, whereas leaving wg expression unaffected (F).
