Abstract excerpt
The vein locus (vn) includes lethal alleles (designated also defective dorsal discs) that prevent growth of dorsal discs and in viable genetic combinations reduce the number of cells of the adult wing. Those effects are prominent in genetic mosaics. Cell proliferation is reduced in all regions of...
