Abstract excerpt
The development of supernumerary bristle precursors induced by the mutation shaggy (sgg; also known as zeste-white 3) was examined in the developing wing blade of imaginal and pupal Drosophila. sgg clones were induced by mitotic recombination; clones were marked using enhancer-trap flies which express beta-galactosidase ubiquitously in imaginal tissues, while bristle precursors were identified using sensillum and...
