    kn1 MARCM clones exhibit many termini in tufts at the ends of the main dendrite branches.

    kn1/knKN2 mutants exhibit 59% more uncovered areas of dendritic outgrowth compared to wild-type ddaC neurons.

    kn1/knKN2 ddaC neurons exhibit a significant reduction in dendrite termini to 77% of wild-type levels. In addition there is a polarization of the normally symmetrical class IV dendritic arbor. In mutant neurons about 70% of the dendrite termini are concentrated in the region dorsal to the cell body.

    kn1/knKN2 mutant ddaC neuronal clones display a marked reduction of dendrite outgrowth and branching, with tufts of short terminal dendrite branches at the ends of the main branch segments often being visible. The termini are concentrated nearer to the cell body than in wild-type.

    kn1/knKN2 mutants do not survive into late embryonic stages.

    Wings veins L3 and L4 are closer to each other in kncol-1/kn1 animals than in wild type and are apposed proximally. The L3-L4 intervein is 66+/-6% smaller than wild type, whereas the anterior margin to L2 an dL2-L3 interveins are normal in size. The L4-L5 and L5 to posterior margin interveins are smaller than wild type. The wave of mitosis that normally takes place in each intervein primordium between 15 and 21 hours after puparium formation is specifically absent from the central region of kncol-1/kn1 wings.

    kn1/knSA1 flies have wings that lack most of the intervein space betweens veins 3 and 4, and show fusions of veins 3 and 4, particularly proximal to the posterior crossvein.

    In a kn1/kncol-1 transheterozygote, the proximal regions of wing veins L3 and L4 are apposed, and the anterior crossvein is missing.

    Fusion of wing veins L3 and L4 in the position of the anterior cross vein and narrowing of the more distal intervein space. Transheterozygotes with knKN1, knKN2, knKN3 or knKN4 enhance the wing vein phenotype, the veins are extensively fused. This loss of intervein region reduced the length and width of the wings by 80-90%. The transition point between socketed and unsocketed bristles at the wing margin is shifted posteriorly to the shifted position of wing vein L3.

    Narrow wings with short connecting extra veins between LIII and LIV.

    Veins L3 and L4 shifted closer together in region of anterior crossvein, which is either extremely thick or eliminated by regional fusion of L3 and L4. Frequently, extra crossvein between L3 and L4 near end of wing. Shift in positions of sensilla and extra chaetae accompanies shift in vein positions. Wing narrowed. Head narrowed and flattened, so the long axis of eye is at oblique angle. May overlap wild type at high temperatures and in late counts. Best at 19oC. RK2.

    Expression of ctScer\UAS.cPa under the control of Scer\GAL4ppk.PG in class IV neurons in a kn1/knKN2 results in the formation of many additional filpodia/spikes that closely resemble those of class III neurons. The overall level of branching in class IV neuron dendritic arbors appears similar to those of class III neurons.

    kn1/kn1 ; vnM2/+ flies lack most of wing vein L4, except for its most proximal and distal parts.

    At 25oC hhts2 enhances the wing vein phenotype seen in kncol-1/kn1.

    Loss of wing vein L2 in ptcG20 mutants is suppressed when simultaneously mutant for kn.

    Double mutant combinations of Egfrt1/Egfrf11 with kn1/kn1 show mutual suppression, with both the Egfr and vein phenotypes being normalised.
