The effect of fat body on the differentiation in vitro of wing imaginal discs ofDrosophila melanogaster.

Martin J Milner1, James H Sang2.   

Abstract

The effect of suboptimal levels of α-ecdysone on the differentiation in vitro ofDrosophila melanogaster wing discs was enhanced by the addition of larval fat body to the cultures. However, similar experiments with β-ecdysome showed no enhancement. It is suggested that a partial conversion of α-ecdysone to β-ecdysone by the fat body may well account for these results.
