Figure 1. Zebrafish Wif1 inhibits D. melanogaster Wg.

Figure 1

(A) Anterior margin of wild-type (WT) wing shows a dense array of sensory bristles (arrowhead). First longitudinal vein (L1, arrow) marks the anterior edge of the wing blade. (B) nub-Gal4-driven expression of UAS-wif1 eliminates anterior bristles (arrowhead) and disrupts L1 (arrow). (C) Anti-Sens staining along the presumptive wing margin in wild type late third instar wing disc. (D) dpp-Gal4-driven expression of UAS-wif1 in anterior cells of late third instar wing disc (marked green by anti-CiAct) eliminates anti-Sens staining locally and in adjacent posterior cells (arrow). In these and the remaining figures anterior is up. In adult wings distal is to the right, in wing discs ventral is to the right.
