Figure 1. Downregulation of Stat92E activity coincides with the expansion of the pouch and notum.

Figure 1

(A-C) Schematics of third in star wing disc (A) and its derivatives in adult flies shown in dorsal (B) and lateral (C) orientations. The third in star wing disc (A) is subdivided along the PD axis into the distal pouch (green), the intermediate hinge (yellow),the pleura (red), and the proximal notum (lateral notum in mauve, and medial notum in purple). wg expression (white) defines the border between the medial and lateral notum, the hinge, and the DV compartment boundary in the wing field. dpp (cyan) is expressed in the anterior compartment along the AP compartment boundary. (B-C) The notum and presumptive pleura give rise to dorsal and lateral parts of the adult mesothorax, respectively, while the wing field gives rise to the wing hinge and blade. The notum mediolateral (ML) and wing proximodistal (PD) axes are indicated by double arrows in B. (D-F) 10× Stat92E-DGFP (green), Nub (red), Eyg (cyan). Downregulation of Stat92E activity in the presumptive notum and pouch coincided with the expansion of these primordial marked with Eyg and Nub, respectively.
