Coordinated development of muscles and tendon-like structures: early interactions in the Drosophila leg

In both vertebrates and invertebrates, precise connectivity between muscles and skeleton (or exoskeleton) via tendons or equivalent structures is fundamental for movement and stability of the body. The molecular...
