Table 1 Summary of marked clones obtained in seven separate experiments. Clones never cross the A/P boundary but they freely cross the L5 vein, where Abbasi and Marcus claim their F/P boundary should be. Early-induced clones sometimes cross over the D/V boundary but late-induced clones respect it. a6/28 touch or run along vein L5,
