Expression of pri1A.Scer\UAS in the dorsal leg, under the control of Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1, produces transformation of the distal tibia and fusion to tarsus 1, and ectopic sex combs in tarsi 1 and 2. These phenotypes are compatible with a transformation of tibial identity towards tarsus.
Ectopic expression of pri1A.Scer\UAS in the embryonic head, under the control of Scer\GAL4Dll-md23 produces extra sclerotised elements in the cephalopharyngeal skeleton.
Expression of tal1A.Scer\UAS in the dorsal leg, under the control of Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1, produces transformation of the distal tibia and fusion to tarsus 1, and ectopic sex combs in tarsi 1 and 2. These phenotypes are compatible with a transformation of tibial identity towards tarsus.
Ectopic expression of tal1A.Scer\UAS in the embryonic head, under the control of Scer\GAL4Dll-md23 produces extra sclerotised elements in the cephalopharyngeal skeleton.
Expression of pri1A.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4unspecified rescues the priunspecified phenotypes in the adult and the embryo.
