plagiarism in Imaginal Cells section

It appeared that most of the Imaginal Cells section is directly copied from the abstract of the referenced article (copied below from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18669822?dopt=Abstract&otool=stanford):

Science. 2008 Sep 12;321(5895):1496-9. doi: 10.1126/science.1158712. Epub 2008 Jul 31. Dual origin of tissue-specific progenitor cells in Drosophila tracheal remodeling. Weaver M, Krasnow MA. Source Howard Hughes Medical Institute and Department of Biochemistry, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, CA 94305-5307, USA. Abstract During Drosophila metamorphosis, most larval cells die. Pupal and adult tissues form from imaginal cells, tissue-specific progenitors allocated in embryogenesis that remain quiescent during embryonic and larval life. Clonal analysis and fate mapping of single, identified cells show that tracheal system remodeling at metamorphosis involves a classical imaginal cell population and a population of differentiated, functional larval tracheal cells that reenter the cell cycle and regain developmental potency. In late larvae, both populations are activated and proliferate, spread over and replace old branches, and diversify into various stalk and coiled tracheolar cells under control of fibroblast growth factor signaling. Thus, Drosophila pupal/adult tissue progenitors can arise both by early allocation of multipotent cells and late return of differentiated cells to a multipotent state, even within a single tissue. Comment in Developmental biology. Return to the proliferative pool. [Science. 2008]

I would greatly appreciate it if someone better versed in insect development could paraphrase this. Apegrrl (talk) 22:24, 1 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
