UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of a DsRed(Unk) fluorescent protein. A genomic fragment containing the mir-968 pre-miRNA hairpin has been inserted into the DsRed(Unk) 3'UTR.
Adult escapers expressing mir-968Scer\UAS.T:Disc\RFP under the control of Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096 have very reduced wings.
Pharate adults expressing mir-968Scer\UAS.T:Disc\RFP under the control of Scer\GAL4sd-SG29.1 do not develop wings or a normal notum.
