Fig. 8. Genetic interactions in the eye. Scanning electron micrographs of (A) OreR
(wild type, +), (B) GMR-RhoA/+, (C) GMR-RhoA/+;
DMYPT03802/+, (D) GMR-Rac7A/+, (E)
sqh[E20E21]/+;GMR-Rac7A/+, and (F)
sqh[A20A21]/+;GMR-Rac7A/+. Heterozygosity for
DMYPT03802 inhibits the formation of bristles in
GMR-RhoA eyes, but has little effect on the overall eye size. In
addition, the phospho-mimicking sqh mutation enhances, while the
non-phosphorylatable sqh mutation suppresses, the rough eye phenotype
associated with GMR-Rac.
