Fig. 1. Isolation and characterization of K2 and N55
alleles. Genotypes are indicated in each panel. FRT, FRT42D. (A)
The unmodified GMR-hid ey-FLP (GheF) eye-ablation phenotype.
(B,C) K2 (B) and N55 (C) alleles are moderate
suppressors of the GheF-eye phenotype. (D-F) Adult eyes of
ey-FLP-induced mosaics of wild-type (D), and K2 (E) and
N55 (F). K2 and N55 mosaic eyes lack mutant clones
(marked by the absence of red pigment) and are overgrown. (G-I)
Eye-antennal discs from third instar larvae of K2 (H) and
N55 mosaics (I) are overgrown and disorganized compared with wild
type (G). Scale bar: 100 µm. (J-L) Non-autonomous suppression of
GMR-hidw- in K2 and N55 mosaics. (J)
Control: in ark mosaics, largely ark mutant clones (marked
by an absence of eye pigment) suppress GMR-hidw-. (K,L) In
K2 (K) and N55 (L) mosaics, the suppression of
GMR-hidw- is mediated by wild-type tissue (red pigment).
K2 and N55 clones do not contribute.
