Confocal scans of larval filets reveal JHR expression in 3rd instar larval body wall tissues, including epidermis, muscle, and fat body. The expression of the Met-GAL4::p65 and gce-GAL4::p65 constructs was visualized using the nuclear reporter Stinger-GFP in (ah). The gce-T2A-GAL4 construct was visualized by this reporter (k) or by the 10xUAS-IVS-p10-GFP reporter (i,j). The patterns seen will be referred to as those of Met and Gce in the descriptions below. (ad) Met expression in: (a) Large polyploid larval epidermal cells, diploid histoblasts (hb), and oenocytes (oe; dotted yellow outline) at the wandering stage, (b) larval muscles, (c) larval fat body, and (d) larval salivary gland (sg) and associated fat body (fb). (e-h) Gce expression in (e) epidermis, histoblasts, and oenocytes, (f) larval muscles (g) fat body cells, and (h) larval salivary glands (sg), shown with associated fat body (fb). (i) gce-T2A-GAL4 > 10xUAS-IVS-GFP-p10 showed expression in histoblasts, epidermis, oenocytes, and larval muscles (m). (j) Gce expression was evident in all larval muscles (yellow dotted line: midline). (k) Close-up of gce-T2A-GAL4 > nls-GFP expression in larval oenocytes (dotted line) and histoblasts (hb, **).
