Fig. 7. Adult phenotypes (A-C) and imaginal disc expression patterns (D-G) caused
by the co-expression of wg and vg in clones in the wing
imaginal disc. Adult clones are labelled with f and delimited by a
broken red line. In the imaginal discs, wg-vg clones are associated
with GFP. Scale bars: 0.1 mm. (A) wg-vg clones in the wing blade may
induce the appearance of tubular outgrowths. Notice the large non-autonomous
growth induced by the clone. The age of clone initiation is 60±12 hours
AEL. (B) Clones situated near the wing margin do not induce outgrowths. The
age of clone initiation is 60±12 hours AEL. (C) In the notum, all the
cells of wg-vg clones (delimited by a broken red line) differentiate
into wing margin sensory elements and non-autonomously induce cuticular
transformation to wing blade (delimited by a broken black line). The age of
clone initiation is 36±12 hours AEL. (D) wg-vg clones (GFP)
induced anywhere within the imaginal disc activate autonomously and
non-autonomously the expression of vg (red; white arrowhead). The age
of clone initiation is 60±12 hours AEL. (E) wg-vg (GFP) clones
show heterogeneous or low levels of wg expression (red; white
arrowheads). The age of clone initiation is 60±12 hours AEL. (F)
wg-vg clones (GFP) autonomous and non-autonomously activate the
expression of nub (red) anywhere in the imaginal disc. Notice that
the non-autonomous expression of nub (red) is detected in cells
surrounding the clone at long distances. The age of clone initiation is
60±12 hours AEL. (G) wg-vg clones (GFP) in the wing blade
autonomously and non-autonomously repress bs (red; white arrowhead)
expression, but in the wing hinge or in the notum, bs is autonomously
repressed and non-autonomously induced. The age of clone initiation is
60±12 hours AEL.
