Expression is observed in both the male and female genital discs, and is complementary to that of wg. Expression is excluded from the repressed male primordium in the female genital disc.
The EcollacZdpp.BS3.0 reporter construct reflects wildtype expression of dpp in the imaginal discs. Expression is detected in a stripe along the anterior-posterior boundary of the wing disc and along the morphogenetic furrow in the eye-antennal disc.
Expressed in cells on anterior side of the A/P boundary.
The expression pattern of EcollacZdpp.BS3.0 most closely recapitulates wild-type dpp expression patterns during development.
construct_comment: One of a series of lacZ reporter constructs used to characterize the disk 3\' regulatory region of dpp.
