a, Inhibition of larval Rh6 photoreceptor development (so > H2B::YFP,EGFRDN): only the Rh5 subtype is present in larvae (blue), whereas (d) the eyelet remains unaffected (anti-Rh6, green; anti-Rh5, blue; anti-YFP, red). b, In the larva, Svp (svp > H2B::YFP, red) is expressed in Rh6 (green) but not Rh5 photoreceptors (blue), whereas (e) the eyelet does not express Svp (anti-Rh6, green). c, In the larva, Sal (sal > H2B::YFP, red) is expressed in Rh5 photoreceptors (blue) but not in Rh6 photoreceptors (green) (f). Sal (red) is expressed in the eyelet (anti-Rh6, green). g, h, rh5-Gal4,UAS-hid,rpr ablates Rh5 photoreceptors (g, arrow) and eyelet (h, arrow) (anti-Rh5, blue; anti Rh6, green; anti Elav, red). i, rh6-Gal4/UAS-p35 prevents apoptosis of Rh6 photoreceptors (anti-Rh6, green; anti-YFP, red). j, k, Sens (red) is detected in the larval Rh5 subtype (rh5 > H2B::YFP, blue; anti-Chp, green) and the eyelet (rh6 > H2B::YFP; anti-YFP, blue; anti-Rh6, green). l, Misexpression of UAS-sens in Rh6 photoreceptors (rh6 > H2B::YFP > sens) prevents their apoptosis (anti-Rh6, green; anti-YFP, red; anti-Rh5, blue). The same phenotype is obtained with GMR-Gal4;UAS-sens (data not shown).
