Sensory bristle number and position is abnormal in notums containing spen mutant clones. Virgin females with the genotype {spenpoc231 FRT40A/ ln (2LR) CyO; dppDISKGAL4/ TM6b} or {spenpoc361 FRT40A/ ln (2LR) CyO; dppDISKGAL4/ TM6b}, were crossed to {w*; GFP FRT40A; UAS-Flp1/ TM6b} males, and adult notums were isolated from progeny females (A-C), or males (D-F) with the following genotypes: {spenpoc361 FRT40A/ GFP FRT40A; dppDISKGAL4/ TM6b} (A, D), {spenpoc231 FRT40A/ GFP FRT40A; dppDISKGAL4/ UAS-Flp1} (B, E), and {spenpoc361 FRT40A/ GFP FRT40A; dppDISKGAL4/ UAS-Flp1} (C, F). Lines delineate the bristles at the dorsal midline. Empty circles indicate loss of bristles (in C), and arrows indicate either gain, or abnormal location of macrochaetae (B, C, E, and F).
