Fig. 2. Electron microscopy of flight muscle from fln0, wild-type and transgenic flies. All pictures are from 2–5-day-old adult IFM. (A,B), fln0; (C,D), wild-type; (E,F), P{fln+}0.2; (G,H), P{fln+}2.2; (I and J), P{fln+}0.2. A, C, E, G, I are longitudinal sections; B, D, F, H, and J are cross sections. Note that the highly disrupted sarcomere structure in fln0 (in A,B) is no longer evident in the rescued line. However, there are fewer thick filaments per myofibril cross-sectional area. G and H, flies expressing four copies of fln+ have normal IFM. I and J, are examples of occasional defects seen in P{fln+}0.2 flies. Bar, 0.5 µm.
