Summary The development of the middle row of triple row wing bristles was examined in flies homozygous for thevestigial mutant, grown at 31°C. While bristle number, length and spacing all improved toward the wild-type condition, the mean values for both sexes were only about 10% of those of wild-type, although development in males was significantly more complete than in females. The results suggest an explanation for the apparent lack of regenerative ability in this tissue.
