Wing disc size is rescued by exogenous ecdysone administration.

(A,B) Relative area of 120 hours AEL smt3i (A) or 42 hours AL3E PGX (B) larvae wing discs before and after exogenous ecdysone administration (+20E). (C,D) Cell number (C) or cell size (D) of smt3i wing discs rescued with ecdysone. Error bars represent standard deviation. Measurements are expressed in percentage relative to 120 hours AEL GFP discs (A,C,D) or 42 hours AL3E > Grim discs (B). Two asterisks indicate p ≤ 0.01, four p ≤ 0.0001.
