Fig 7. Tests for genetic interactions show that trithorax specifically regulates the expression of some pigmentation pathway genes.

EGFP reporter transgene expression driven by CREs in genetic backgrounds where RNAi was performed in the midline region (A–E) for the negative control mCherry gene and (A’-E’) for trithorax. EGFP expression driven by the (A and A’) bab dimorphic element, (B and B’) Ddc_MEE1, and (C and C’) yBE0.6 were taken at the P13-14(i) developmental stage. EGFP expression driven by the (D and D’) t_MSE was recorded at the P14-15(i) stage, and (E and E’) e_AMS CRE’s activity were recorded at 2 hours after eclosion. All specimens are hemizygous for the EGFP reporter transgene. Yellow arrowheads indicate segments where the genetic background alterations resulted in conspicuous ectopic EGFP reporter expression. Red arrowheads indicate segments where the genetic background alterations resulted in a reduced EGFP reporter expression.
