Expression of wgnScer\UAS.cRa.T:Zzzz\FLAG under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF results in R cell axon targeting defects in third instar larvae. Abnormal R8 growth cones are seen and the lamina plexus is disrupted.
Scer\GAL4elav.PU/wgnUAS.cRa.Tag:FLAG partially rescues wgn22
wgnUAS.cRa.Tag:FLAG/Scer\GAL4sca-109-68 partially rescues wgn22
Expression of wgnScer\UAS.cRa.T:Zzzz\FLAG under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU rescues the R2-R5 axon targeting defects seen in wgn22 hemizygotes in 37.5% of cases.
Expression of wgnScer\UAS.cRa.T:Zzzz\FLAG under the control of Scer\GAL4sca-109-68 rescues the R2-R5 axon targeting defects seen in wgn22 hemizygotes in 66.7% of cases.
