Major sites of expression of w are indicated in bold. Data are from flyatlas.org.(Chintapalli et al., 2007).`mRNA' signal indicates how abundant w mRNA is; the Affymetrix`present call' indicates how many times w is detectably expressed out of four arrays; `mRNA enrichment' indicates comparison to whole flies
