A quantitative version of a theorem by Jungreis
No full textA fundamental result by Gromov and Thurston asserts that, if M is a closed hyperbolic n-manifold, then the simplicial volume |M| of M is equal to vol(M)/v_n, where v_n is a constant depending only on the dimension of M. The same result also holds for complete finite-volume hyperbolic manifolds without boundary, while Jungreis proved that the ratio vol(M)/|M| is strictly smaller than v_n if M is compact with non-empty geodesic boundary. We prove here a quantitative version of Jungreis' result for n>3, which bounds from below the ratio |M|/vol(M) in terms of the ratio between the volume of the boundary of M and the volume of M. As a consequence, we show that a sequence {M_i} of compact hyperbolic n-manifolds with geodesic boundary is such that the limit of vol(M_i)/|M_i| equals v_n if and only if the volume of the boundary of M_i grows sublinearly with respect to the volume of the boundary of M_i. We also provide estimates of the simplicial volume of hyperbolic manifolds with geodesic boundary in dimension three
Tribolium mae expression suggests roles in terminal and midline patterning and in the specification of mesoderm
No full textIn Drosophila, the Mae protein ("modulator of the activity of Ets") regulates receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK)-dependent mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling. Mae has been shown to bind the Yan and Pointed-P2 transcription factors, thereby changing their ability to activate or repress target genes. In this work we show that the mae ortholog of the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum (Tc'mae) is active at the posterior, but not the anterior pole of the blastoderm. Since MAPK signaling is known to be active at both poles, Tc'Mae could function to modulate terminal MAPK signaling to differentiate the developmental programs at the anterior and posterior poles of the Tribolium blastoderm embryo. Tc'mae is also expressed along the midline of the germband, similar as in Drosophila, where it is involved in the patterning of midline cells. Before gastrulation and in the growth zone, Tc'mae is active in mesoderm precursor cells. This suggests that in short germ embryos MAPK signaling may also be involved in the specification of mesoderm

expression and function
No full textSegmentation is well understood in Drosophila, where all segments are determined at the blastoderm stage. In the flour beetle Tribolium castaneum, as in most insects, the posterior segments are added at later stages from a posteriorly located growth zone, suggesting that formation of these segments may rely on a different mechanism. Nevertheless, the expression and function of many segmentation genes seem conserved between Tribolium and Drosophila. We have cloned the Tribolium ortholog of the abdominal gap gene giant. As in Drosophila, Tribolium giant is expressed in two primary domains, one each in the head and trunk. Although the position of the anterior domain is conserved, the posterior domain is located at least four segments anterior to that of Drosophila. Knockdown phenotypes generated with morpholino oligonucleotides, as well as embryonic and parental RNA interference, indicate that giant is required for segment formation and identity also in Tribolium. In giant-depleted embryos, the maxillary and labial segment primordia are normally formed but assume thoracic identity. The segmentation process is disrupted only in postgnathal metamers. Unlike Drosophila, segmentation defects are not restricted to a limited domain but extend to all thoracic and abdominal segments, many of which are specified long after giant expression has ceased. These data show that giant in Tribolium does not function as in Drosophila, and suggest that posterior gap genes underwent major regulatory and functional changes during the evolution from short to long germ embryogenesis
