Ectopic wnd expression attenuates Alk-induced, JNK-mediated cell competition. (AE) Eyes of adult female flies expressing the indicated transgene(s) under the control of the binary Gal/UAS- system or the GMR promotor. n > 75, 100% penetrance. (F) Phenotypic rescue of a sevEP-Gal4 > UAS-Alk fly eye by one copy of Df(3L)H99, a deficiency for the pro-apoptotic genes hid, grim, and rpr. n > 40, 100% penetrance. Scale bar = 100 µm. (GI’’) Eye discs from pupae (50 apf) expressing sevEP-driven UAS-YFP and the JNK activity reporter TRE-RFP. TRE-activity is not observed in controls (G-G’’) but upon ectopic Alk expression (HH’’). (II’’) TRE-activity in sevEP-Gal4 > UAS-Alk, UAS-wnd/ + eye discs co-expressing Wnd and Alk.
