Clones of cells in the anterior compartment of the dorsal epidermis of the adult abdomen (in the tergite) that are expressing ftScer\UAS.cMa under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL in a ft12/ftunspecified background do not change the cell polarity of cells surrounding the clone.
Homozygous larvae and transheterozygotes in combination with ft8 have overgrown imaginal discs and die at the pupal stage.
pupal lethal
ft12/ft15 has abnormal planar polarity phenotype, enhanceable by dsUAO71
ft12/ft15 has ventral denticle belt phenotype, enhanceable by dsUAO71
ft12/ft15 has denticle row 5 phenotype, enhanceable by dsUAO71
ft12/ft15 has denticle row 6 phenotype, enhanceable by dsUAO71
The reversal of cell polarity phenotype that is seen in cells anterior to clones in the anterior compartment of the dorsal epidermis of the adult abdomen (in the tergite) where the clones are expressing fzScer\UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL shows a longer range if the clones are induced in a ft12/ftunspecified background compared to a wild-type background.
Clones of cells in the anterior compartment of the dorsal epidermis of the adult abdomen (in the tergite) that are expressing dsecto.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL in a ft12/ftunspecified background do not change the cell polarity of cells surrounding the clone.
Clones of cells in the anterior compartment of the dorsal epidermis of the adult abdomen (in the tergite) where the clones are co-expressing both fzScer\UAS.cUa and ftScer\UAS.cMa under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL and the clones have been induced in a ft12/ftunspecified background, result in reversal of cell polarity in cells anterior to the clone.
