Bicoid is the transcription factor determining the anterior pattern, it is distributed in a concentration gradient with its maximum at the anterior pole of the egg and controls the transcription of several target genes in a concentration dependent manner.

This restriction applies in particular to the processes requiring diffusion in a syncytial embryo, as in the case of the formation of the Bicoid gradient.

An example of this mechanism has been discovered by studying the maternal control of the expression pattern of the gap gene hunchback by the morphogen Bicoid

We then test the method on real data about the diffusion of the morphogen Bicoid in Drosophila melanogaster.
