The dorsal trunk of the tracheal system in Df(2R)reb-64/Df(2R)BSC879 embryos is curly, slightly irregular and elongated compared to controls. Despite its change in size, the tracheal network has normal branching patterns.
The dorsal trunk of the tracheal system in Df(2R)reb-64 homozygous embryos is curly, slightly irregular and elongated compared to controls. Despite its change in size, the tracheal network has normal branching patterns.
Cell polarity is maintained in the dorsal trunk of the tracheal system in embryos homozygous for Df(2R)reb-64.
Extracellular matrix components are drastically reduced and endocytosis is disrupted in the apical membrane of the tracheal lumen in Df(2R)reb-64 homozygous embryos.
