Scanning electron microscope image of a fly head, showing an extra eye field (red) lying on the ventral surface adjacent to the normal compound eye (red). This field results from the forced expression of mouse Six6 , the vertebrate ortholog for the Drosophila optix gene. Please see the article by B. Weasner and J.P. Kumar in this issue.
