Hexagonal packing of Drosophila wing epithelial cells by the Planar Cell Polarity pathway
The mechanisms that order cellular packing geometry are critical for the functioning of many tissues, but are poorly understood. Here we investigate this problem in the developing wing of Drosophila. The surface of the wing is decorated by hexagonally packed hairs that are uniformly oriented towards...
