Fig. 3. drm and odd regulate hh expression, probably
through enabling bowl function. (A,B) Eye discs
containing M+ clones mutant for (A) drm6 or (B)
DfdrmP2 (marked by absence of lacZ). (A) No effect on
retinogenesis or Ptc expression is seen adjacent to drm-mutant
margin. (Similar results were obtained for odd5.) (B)
Retinogenesis fails when the adjacent margin is mutant for DfdrmP2.
White and red arrows indicate mutant and wild-type margin, respectively.
(C) Adult head from the DfdrmP2, M+ experiment
showing severely reduced eyes. (D,D') drm-expressing clone
(absence of CD2, and outlined in D') induces an ectopic furrow (marked
by dpp-Z) and associated retinogenesis (detected by Elav). The line
indicates the position of the endogenous furrow (D). (E) Disc proper
(Dp) expression of bowl mRNA is detected anterior to the furrow
(line) in late L3 discs. (F-F") drm+
bowl- clones (blue) do not induce ectopic retinal
differentiation anterior to the morphogenetic furrow (arrow; line indicates
the furrow). Phalloidin stains actin. A drm+
bowl- clone located immediately after the furrow (boxed) shows
Elav-positive neurons (inset). (G-G") L2 eye disc from
oddZ/UAS-GFP; hh-GAL4 larvae shows extensive overlap of
hh and odd at the posterior margin. Asterisk indicates the
hh ocellar domain, which, at this stage, does not express
odd-Z. (H-H") Most drm-expressing clones
(absence of CD2, outlined in H' and H'') induce hh-Z
expression just anterior to the morphogenetic furrow (line). Discs are
oriented with posterior towards the right and dorsal upwards.
