Pair-rule genes are genes involved in the development of segmented embryo. They function as a layer in the
developmental hierarchy between gap genes and segment polarity genes. They also play a role together with
gap genes in controlling regional expression of specific homeotic genes in establishing a unique segmental
repeating pattern

ANTERO-POSTERIOR PATTERNING
What are Hox genes and their significance?
ANTERO-POSTERIOR PATTERNING
Hox genes are regulatory genes, meaning they control the expression of another gene.
They play a role in directing early segmentation of embryo specifically the segments of
anteroposterior axis.
