Clones expressing Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI>eygScer\UAS.lune are significantly larger than wild-type control clones.
Overgrowth of the eye-antennal disc is seen in eygScer\UAS.lune; Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1 larvae, and in eygScer\UAS.lune; Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI somatic clones falling in proximal regions of the eye-antennal disc. eygScer\UAS.lune; Scer\GAL4ey.PH flies have enlarged eyes.
When eygScer\UAS.lune is driven by Scer\GAL4ey.PH results in ectopic eye formation. The ectopic eyes are almost always located ventral to the endogenous eye on the head. They often appear linked to the endogenous eye, but occasionally are well separated and are surrounded by orbital bristles. The penetrance of extra eye formation is low. Mutant flies also usually have some recognisable defect in the ventral head: the ventral posterior tim of the eye can be reduced and replaced by head cuticle, and/or a few extra bristles. Only 16% of animals have extra ommatidia and only 38% of these have the extra ommatidia as an isolated extra eye.
Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1, eygUAS.lune has eye disc phenotype, enhanceable by eyUAS.cHa/Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1

Scer\GAL4ey.PH/eygUAS.lune is a suppressor of eye phenotype of Scer\GAL4ey.PH, fngUAS.cKa
eygUAS.lune, Scer\GAL4ey.PH is a suppressor of eye disc phenotype of NECN.UAS, Scer\GAL4ey.PH
Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1/eygUAS.lune is a suppressor | partially of eye phenotype of eyD/ey2
Scer\GAL4ey.PH/eygUAS.lune is a non-suppressor of eye phenotype of Df(1)os1
Eye development in NECN.Scer\UAS.cGa; Scer\GAL4ey.PH flies is partially rescued by eygScer\UAS.lune. The resulting eyes are almost as big as wild-type. Eye development in HScer\UAS.cGa; Scer\GAL4ey.PH flies is partially rescued by eygScer\UAS.lune.
The small eye phenotype of Df(1)os1 homozygotes is not suppressed by eygScer\UAS.lune; Scer\GAL4ey.PH.
Scer\GAL4ey.PH-mediated expression of eygScer\UAS.lune fully rescues the eye size defects caused by Scer\GAL4ey.PH-mediated expression of fngScer\UAS.cKa and of NECN.Scer\UAS.
When eyScer\UAS.cHa and eygScer\UAS.lune are driven by Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1, the ectopic eyes produced are larger than eyScer\UAS.cHa or eygScer\UAS.lune driven alone. This phenotype is more noticeable in the eye disc.

Expression of eygScer\UAS.lune under the control of Scer\GAL4CD rescues the loss of the eye-antennal disc and headless phenotype of the eygM3-12 mutant. In some cases, duplication of the larval eye-antennal disc and adult antenna occurs. The notum of these animals remains grooved.
Expression of eygScer\UAS.lune under the control of Scer\GAL4EX, Scer\GAL4F1, or Scer\GAL4XS partially rescues the eygM3-12 mutant. In all cases a small head with antennae but without eyes develops. The rescue efficiency of Scer\GAL4XS (76%) and Scer\GAL4EX (60%) are both much higher than Scer\GAL4F1 (7%).
Expression of eygScer\UAS.lune under the combined control of Scer\GAL4EX and Scer\GAL4XS partially rescues the eygM3-12 mutant to a slightly higher percentage (85%) than either driver alone. In this case the same level of rescue is observed, with flies having a small head with antennae but no eyes.
Expression of eygScer\UAS.lune under the transient control of Scer\GAL4CD during stage L2 (expression restricted by Scer\GAL80ts.αTub84B throughout other stages of development) significantly rescues the eygM3-12 eye mutant phenotype. Earlier and later expression are not sufficient to rescue the eye development.
The loss of eyes in eygM3-12/eyg1 and the lack of a head in eygM3-12 flies are both partially rescued by eygScer\UAS.lune; Scer\GAL4eyg.E2-EX.
One copy of eygScer\UAS.lune under the control of Scer\GAL4ey.PH rescues eygPxA1/eyg123M11 mutants to healthy adulthood with almost normal-sized eyes.
