a Representative TEM images from sections of midgut at −4 h PRF. Control (NP1-GAL4/+) and TorRNAi cells possess autolysosomal structures (arrows); Dpp and TkvACT midgut cells lack structures. Autolysosomal structures can be detected in the double TorRNAi knockdown with Dpp or TkvACT (arrows). b Quantitation of the number of autophagic vesicles (autophagosomes and autolysosomes) and lysosomes (data represented as average vesicle/area ± SD; **p < 0.0001, *p < 0.01, ns not significant). Scale bar represent 1 μm
