Fig. 4. Overexpression of Drosophila Smad2 (Smox) can rescue the
effects of overexpression of the Drosophila B subunit Twins in the
wing. (A) Phenotypically wild-type wing from +/Y; UAS-tws23;
UAS-Smox8D3 male. (B) Small, blistered wing from A9-GAL4;
UAS-tws23; + male. All wings from these males are smaller than wild type;
80% were cupped and blistered with little or no evidence of veins.
(C) Wing from A9-GAL4; +; UAS-Smox8D3 male. In this genotype,
wing veins formed a delta at the margin, and additional wing vein material was
often observed (arrows). (D) Phenotypically normal wing from
A9-GAL4; UAS-tws23; UAS-Smox8D3 male. All veins terminated normally
at the margin (arrows).
