Fig. 6. Constitutive wg signaling blocks normal differentiation pathways
of follicle cells. The micrograph in A represents a confocal section along the
surface of an ovariole, whereas the rest are one confocal cross section of an
egg chamber or an ovariole. (A,B) Parts of two ovarioles labeled for
lacZ (red) and pH3 (green) showing marked mutant Axn
follicle cell clones (outlined). (C,D) Parts of two ovarioles labeled for
lacZ (red) and Lamin C (green), showing marked mutant Axn
follicle cell clones (outlined) and normal (C, arrowhead) or mutant (D,
arrowhead) Axn stalk cells. (E-J) Parts of ovarioles labeled for
lacZ (red) and Fas3 (green) showing (E,G,I) marked mutant
Axn (outlined) or (F,H,J) sgg follicle cell clones
(outlined). The mutant Axn follicle cells between egg chambers
express high levels of Fas3, but those that are integrated into egg follicle
epithelium fail to express Fas3 at high levels. Arrows in I and J indicate
wild-type polar cells. Scale bars: 10 µm.
