To facilitate the comparison of spatial gene expression patterns during fruit fly embryogenesis.

Main Methods:

Development of the FlyExpress mobile application.
Aggregation and standardization of over 100,000 in situ hybridization images.
Implementation of features for visualizing gene expression across developmental stages and projections.

Main Results:

The FlyExpress app provides access to spatial patterns for over 4,000 developmentally relevant genes.
Users can visualize and compare gene expression patterns for different visual projections and developmental stages.
The application facilitates the tracking of a gene's spatial expression progression over time.

Conclusions:

The FlyExpress app enhances accessibility to crucial Drosophila melanogaster gene expression data.
This mobile tool supports immediate visual comparisons for laboratory research and scientific discussions.
