Figure 7. Phenotype arising upon Dpp knock-down in last instar larvae.

(A) Lateral views of wild-type imago (A) and arrested dpp (RNAi) animal at pupal-adult transformation (B) are shown. This phenotype is dominant, however, some animals exhibited a milder phenotype, in which they ecdysed to imagoes but had affected wings (D) and leg deformations (F,G) of mainly the tarsus when compared to wild-type wing (C) and leg (E). Scale bar, A–B, 500 µm; C–G, 250 µm.
