Ectopic expression of ZyxΔ208-231.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4nub.PU results in slightly but significantly smaller adult wings compared to wild-type.
ZyxΔ208-231.UAS/Scer\GAL4nub.PU is a non-suppressor of visible | adult stage phenotype of Scer\GAL4nub.PU, exUAS.cBa
ZyxΔ208-231.UAS/Scer\GAL4nub.PU is a non-suppressor of hypoplasia | adult stage phenotype of Scer\GAL4nub.PU, exUAS.cBa
The severely undergrown wing phenotype seen in adult flies expressing exScer\UAS.cBa under the control of Scer\GAL4nub.PU cannot be suppressed by co-expression of ZyxΔ208-231.Scer\UAS : the wings of flies expressing both exScer\UAS.cBa and ZyxΔ208-231.Scer\UAS are even smaller than those of animals expressing exScer\UAS.cBa alone, the wing blade being lost altogether.
The small wing phenotype displayed by ZyxΔ41/ZyxΔ41 adults can be fully rescued by expression of ZyxΔ208-231.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4nub.PU in the mutant background, resulting in adult wings that are comparable in size to wild-type.
