Developmental expression patterns of toolkit genes in male accessory gland of Drosophila parallels those of mammalian prostate

Conservation of genetic toolkits in disparate phyla may help reveal commonalities in organ designs transcending their extreme anatomical disparities. A male accessory sexual organ in mammals, the prostate, for instance, is anatomically disparate from its analogous, phylogenetically distant counterpa...
