New Components of Drosophila Leg Development Identified through Genome Wide Association Studies
[10.1371/journal.pone.0060261][FBrf0221227]

Description

This study focused on leg and antenna development from imaginal discs. They identified additional genes and genetic pathways involved in leg imaginal disc development. In particular, five genes that, when their function is reduced by RNAi, cause an antenna-to-leg transformation.

Comments from curator

Phenotyping data come from Table S1 in the Supporting Information section. I've manually separated the table (which has data per fly, with 24 replicates per sex for each line) into T1 (first) and T2 (second thoracic leg) phenotypes.

Measurements of the legs were recorded using Adobe Photoshop and ImageJ. Measurements of the femur, tibia, and tarsal segments were recorded separately. Of note, I could not find in the paper what was the unit for the measurements?
