Hox genes encoding homeodomain-containing transcription factors control the embryogenesis and the specification of various tissue structures during animal development.The specific regional functions of individual Hox genes largely reflect their restricted expression patterns, the disruption of which can lead to developmental defects and disease.In silkworm, there are more than 30 mutants (E pseudoalleles) exhibiting profound morphological alterations during development, such as extra color markings, supernumerary or defective legs, abnormal silkgland, defective wings and embryonic lethality.
