Mesoderm invagination, the first morphogenetic movement of gastrulation in the early Drososphila embryo, is controlled by the expression of the twist and snail genes. (science.institut-curie.org)

Second, we analyzed Nodal target gene expression by RNA - Seq at four time points prior to or during early gastrulation in wild - type and toddler mutants. (elifesciences.org)
