Fig. 1. Cell morphologies in wing discs. Pseudo-colorized confocal sections of a wing disc (110 hours AED) stained with {alpha}-spectrin illustrates cell morphologies in the peripodial epithelium (PE) and disc proper (DP). Disc oriented with anterior leftwards, dorsal upwards. Broken white lines mark the orientations of optical cross-section and longitudinal section. Red, squamous peripodial epithelium (sPE); yellow, cuboidal cells of the margin in the peripodial epithelium (mPE) and disc proper (mDP); blue, columnar cells of the disc proper (cDP). (A) Confocal image of the PE; (B) longitudinal section; (C) confocal section in plane of the DP (5 µm below PE); (D) cross-section. Scale bar: 50 µm.
