The genes involved in pattern formation and organization of body parts are called homeobox genes, which are a large family of similar genes.

The homeobox genes direct the formation of many body structures during early development of the embryo.

The genes that are involved in pattern formation and organization of body parts are called MASTER DEVELOPMENTAL REGULATORY GENES. Master developmental regulatory genes control development. These genes encode transcription factors and cell signalling molecules.
