Heart phenotypes in tupisl-1 mutants. (A,B,D-J) Compared with wild-type Drosophila embryos, tupisl-1 mutants are characterized by gaps in expression of all examined myocardial (Dmef2 and Tin) and all pericardial (Pc, Odd and Eve) cell markers. (C,K) Embryos that are transheterozygotic for tupisl-1 and a deficiency that includes the tup locus, Df(2L)OD15, also show gaps in Dmef2 expression at stage 14 (arrows in C) and show a strong reduction of Tin-expressing cardiac cells at late stage 11 (asterisk in K). Arrowheads in K point to Tin-positive visceral mesodermal cells. as, amnioserosa; rg, ring glands.
