2 Figure 1 Cell competition in the Drosophila wing disc.
(A) In a wild-type background (WT), clones of heterozygous Minute cells (M/+, in green) are cleared from the wing disc 72 h after competition started (top). In a fwe or an azot mutant background, M/+ cells are no longer eliminated and are still present 72 h after clone induction (bottom). (B) WT cells express the fweUbi isoform whereas M/+ cells express both fweLose isoforms. Following flower-mediated fitness comparison, M/+ cells start to express azot and are eliminated from the tissue through Hid-dependent apoptosis.
