Genes seen Using a technique called “multiplex labeling” developed by UC San Diego biologists, fluorescent dyes highlight the activity of five different genes at work in a Drosophila embryo. The ability to visualize the activity of multiple genes provides researchers with a more complete, sophisticated and expansive portrait of biological growth, from the normal development of a fruit fly to the abnormal origins of a cancerous tumor.
