1.
Hepker J, Blackman R, Holmgren R
Development . 1999 Jul; 126(16):3669-77. PMID: 10409512
In Drosophila, the imaginal discs are the primordia for adult appendages. Their proper formation is dependent upon the activation of the decapentaplegic (dpp) gene in a stripe of cells just...

Kopp A, Blackman R, Duncan I
Development . 1999 Jul; 126(16):3495-507. PMID: 10409497
Adult abdominal segments of Drosophila are subdivided along the dorso-ventral axis into a dorsal tergite, a ventral sternite and ventro-lateral pleural cuticle. We report that this pattern is largely specified...

Yu K, Sturtevant M, Biehs B, Francois V, PADGETT R, Blackman R, et al.
Development . 1996 Dec; 122(12):4033-44. PMID: 9012523
TGF-beta-related signaling pathways play diverse roles during vertebrate and invertebrate development. A common mechanism for regulating the activity of TGF-beta family members is inhibition by extracellular antagonists. Recently, the Drosophila...

Biotechniques . 1996 Aug; 21(2):226-228, 230. PMID: 8862804

Merli C, Bergstrom D, Cygan J, Blackman R
Genes Dev . 1996 May; 10(10):1260-70. PMID: 8675012
Although enhancers can exert their influence over great distances, their effect is generally limited to a single gene. To discern the mechanism by which this constraint can he mediated, we...

Twombly V, Blackman R, Jin H, Graff J, PADGETT R, Gelbart W
Development . 1996 May; 122(5):1555-65. PMID: 8625842
We examine roles of signaling by secreted ligands of the TGF-beta family during Drosophila oogenesis. One family member, the DPP ligand encoded by the decapentaplegic (dpp) gene, is required for...

Finelli A, Xie T, Bossie C, Blackman R, PADGETT R
Genetics . 1995 Sep; 141(1):271-81. PMID: 8536976
The Drosophila decapentaplegic (dpp) gene, a member of the transforming growth factor beta superfamily of growth factors, is critical for specification of the embryonic dorsal-ventral axis, for proper formation of...

Bergstrom D, Merli C, Cygan J, Shelby R, Blackman R
Genetics . 1995 Mar; 139(3):1331-46. PMID: 7768442
Our previous work has shown that the expression of the Drosophila decapentaplegic (dpp) gene in imaginal disks is controlled by a 30 kb array of enhancers located 3' of the...

Raftery L, Sanicola M, Blackman R, Gelbart W
Development . 1991 Sep; 113(1):27-33. PMID: 1765000
Imaginal disks, the primordia of the adult appendages in Drosophila, are divided into anterior and posterior compartments. However, the developmental role of such compartments remains unclear. The expression of decapentaplegic...

Blackman R, Sanicola M, Raftery L, Gillevet T, Gelbart W
Development . 1991 Mar; 111(3):657-66. PMID: 1908769
The decapentaplegic (dpp) gene in Drosophila melanogaster encodes a TGF-beta-like signalling molecule that is expressed in a complex and changing pattern during development. One of dpp's contributions is to proximal-distal...
