Fig. 5. scb- clones alter the width or course of wing veins.
scb1 clones were generated using FLP/FRT mediated
recombination and scored by the marker pawn. (A) Large clones
generate blistered wings, a phenotype characteristic of other
integrin- mutants. (B) Two scb1 clones adjacent
to veins L2 and L3 result in broadening of the adjacent veins (regions between
arrows indicate affected sections of veins), which comprise wild-type cells.
(C) A high magnification view of two scb1 dorsal clones
surrounding the L3 vein, which are associated with a thickened vein segment
(four cells wide). (D) A dorsal scb1 clone located in the
center of the L3 provein region divides the vein into two branches, which
avoid the clone (arrows). (E) A wing containing several
scb1 clones in the proximity of L3. A ventral clone
running over the vein has no effect. (F) A dorsal scb1
clone generated in a sogEP11 background lying inside the
provein domain splits the L2 vein into two well defined branches. Arrows
indicate veins formed outside the clonal boundary (indicated by broken red
lines).
