corto interacts with rolled (rl) and dMP1 during wing tissue differentiation

For all genotypes, the first allele was brought by the mother. Only female phenotypes are reported here, but similar results were obtained for males. Numbers of females with ectopic veins only or with two blistered wings among flies bearing a corto allele and over-expressing rlSem were compared to the one of flies over-expressing rlSem only. Numbers of females with ectopic veins among flies containing the UAS::dsMP1 transgene, the sd::Gal4 transgene and a corto mutation were compared to that of flies containing the UAS::dsMP1 and the sd::Gal4 transgenes only (Z-test, a p < 0.001; b p < 0.05).
