Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Transforms thoracic segments toward abdominal segment identity, as determined by the abdominal type denticles in the T2-T3 belts. The head fails to involute and mixed patches of thoracic and abdominal denticles appear in cephalic segments occasionally forming complete belts. 17% of cuticles exhibit a duplicated T1 beard in labial segments. Dorsal-lateral epidermis in abdominal and thoracic segments is transformed towards an A8 identity, causing ectopic filzkorper and perispiracular hairs.
