From: Tc-knirps plays different roles in the specification of antennal and mandibular parasegment boundaries and is regulated by a pair-rule gene in the beetle Tribolium castaneum

Figure 9

Tc-kni is regulated by Tc-eve . The Tc-kni head expression domain, which covers the anterior compartment of the mandibular segment (bounded by black horizontal lines in panels A, C, D) extends posteriorly (arrowhead in panel B), in a Tc-eve RNAi background, but not in Tc-odd RNAi (panel C) or Tc-run RNAi (panel C) embryos. This is consistent with Tc-eve expression in the posterior compartment of the mandibular segment setting the posterior boundary of the Tc-kni head expression domain.
