Fig. 6. Phenotypes of later el noc double mutant clones. (A) Cuticle preparation of a wild-type wing (left) and magnification of the wing hinge (right). PCo, MCo and DCo indicate proximal, medial and distal costa; Teg, tegula; veins are numbered vI-V. (B,C) Cuticle preparations of wings with large Minute+ el3.3.1 noc{Delta}64 double mutant clones induced at 84 hours (early third instar time in the Minute genotype). Clone marked by forked (shaded pink). Note the reduced size of the wings compared to the wild-type wing in A (same magnification). Right: detail of the wing hinge regions. Note deletion of hinge structures. (D) Cuticle preparation of an el1 mutant wing (left) and amplification of the wing hinge (right). Note deletion of hinge structures and reduced wing size compared to wild-type wings. (E) Cuticle preparation of a wild type adult leg. (F) Cuticle preparation of a leg carrying a double mutant clone extending through coxa, femur and tibia, but not tarsal segments. The trochanter is missing. Mutant tissue is shaded pink. Arrowheads indicate joints (not visible at this magnification; Co, Coxa; Tr, Trochanter; Fe, Femur; Ti, Tibia; 1st-5th, tarsal segments).
