Abstract
⺠We generate a large inversion allele, on the centromeric side of the HoxD cluster. ⺠The centromeric landscape is flipped away, while leaving the cluster intact. ⺠This inversion causes shortening of both primary and secondary body axes. ⺠Mis-regulations of Hoxd genes underlie the observed phenotypes ⺠We discuss the importance of genomic “landscape effects” on gene regulation.
