hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Flies expressing ple[Scer\UAS.cTa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[ple.PF] show normal temperature-preference behaviour.
When pleScer\UAS.cTa is driven by Scer\GAL4ap-md544, Scer\GAL4ap-md544, Scer\GAL4Dll-md23 or Scer\GAL4en-e16E, no ectopic pigmentation is seen. If pleScer\UAS.cTa is driven by Scer\GAL4hs.2sev (with no heatshock) or Scer\GAL4how-24B, a gradual development of ectopic brown stripes in the intervein areas of the wings during adult life was seen.
Expression of pleScer\UAS.cTa under the control of Scer\GAL4unspecified results in lightening of the adult abdominal stripes and a low level of ectopic pigmentation in the intervein areas of the wing.

Statement
Reference
Flies co-expressing both Ddc[Scer\UAS.cTa] and ple[Scer\UAS.cTa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[ple.PF] show abnormal temperature-preference behaviour; their avoidance index against high temperatures is only 39% of wild type.
Co-expressing pleScer\UAS.cTa and DdcScer\UAS.cTa under the control of Scer\GAL4hs.2sev leads to a more intense ectopic pigmentation phenotype than pleScer\UAS.cTa alone. The adult cuticle remains underpigmented.
Expression of pleScer\UAS.cTa together with DdcScer\UAS.cTa under the control of Scer\GAL4unspecified enhances the wing pigmentation phenotype and variably suppresses the abdominal pigmentation phenotype.
