TABLE 4.

Overexpression of wild-type Sb-sbd causes defects in leg morphogenesis

Genotype Treatment n % wt
hs-Sb+/hs-Sb+; +/+ 0 hr AP hs 118 54
3 hr AP hs 58 50
30 and 33 hr AP hs 55 0
No hs 120 100
No transgene 0 hr AP hs 88 96
3 hr AP hs 56 93
30 and 33 hr AP hs 70 100
No hs 70 100

White prepupae from wild-type flies carrying two copies of the wild-type Sb-sbd transgene (hs-Sb+) or no transgene were heat shocked immediately (0 hr AP hs) or aged at 25° until 3 hr AP and then heat shocked (3 hr AP). A third group was heat shocked at 30 hr and again at 33 hr AP (30 and 33 hr AP). All heat shocks were at 37° for 1 hr. Adults (n) were scored for leg phenotype. The percentage of individuals with all wild-type legs (no legs malformed) is shown (% wt). See text for a description of differences between malformed leg phenotypes resulting from early and late heat shock.
