The size distribution of regenerated adult wings in Nox^MI15634 heterozygous mutants that were subjected to ablation of imaginal wing disc tissue during the larval stage, is significantly shifted towards bigger wing size compared to similarly treated controls. The regeneration appears to proceed at pace comparable to that observed in the wild-type controls, as judged by gradual increase in size of the regenerating wing pouch and rate of proliferation, also the delay in entry into pupariation is similar between the mutant and the control regenerating larvae. Without any tissue damage the timing of pupariation in Nox^MI15634 animals is not significantly different from the wild-type.
