Fly Ortholog: 
Dachsous
RNAi Phenotype Description: 
Note that the descriptions below are representative of both concentrations that were injected - no significant differences were noted between the two concentrations, except for the mortality rate bein

Fly Ortholog: 
LRRK
RNAi Phenotype Description: 
No RNAi phenotype was observed
Student Name:

RNAi Phenotype/Assay Images: 
Fly Ortholog: 
BarH1 + BarH2, 2:1 ortholog (Drosophila:Tribolium)
RNAi Phenotype Description: 
Possible narrowing of the eye, as well as loss of distal leg differentiation.
Student Name: 
Sam James, Rob Dieter
RNAi Phenotype/Assay Images: 
Fly Ortholog: 
TweedleD
RNAi Phenotype Description: 
The beetles appeared to exhibit no change in the axial ration as shown in the Drosophila.
Student Name: 
Valerine Rajathi and Anna Osatuke
RNAi Phenotype/Assay Images: 
Fly Ortholog: 
Dual Oxidase (duox)
RNAi Phenotype Description: 
Not observed in Tribolium. We hypothesized that the duox gene had gained a new function that facilitated the evolution of unique wing structure in Coleoptera.
Student Name: 
Clayton Deible & Kailee Tateman
RNAi Phenotype/Assay Images: 
Fly Ortholog: 
Argos
RNAi Phenotype Description: 
Mortality, decaying tissue in the wings, abnormalities of GFP arrangement in eyes
Student Name: 
Jessica Krandel & Hannah Abner
RNAi Phenotype/Assay Images: 
Fly Ortholog: 
Shaven
RNAi Phenotype Description: 
Larvae: Loss of sensory bristles on one injected larva? Pupae: Urogomphi shortened/nearly missing in pupae Gin-traps are disrupted, some nearly missing Missing sensory bristles Dead adult Tr
