Flies were maintained using standard conditions. Fly lines repo-Gal4 (BDSC_7415), longGMR-Gal4 (BDSC_8121), elav-Gal4 (BDSC_8760), HdcMB07212 (BDSC_25260), R10D10-Gal4 (BDSC_69558), R32H04-Gal4 (BDSC_49734), R29A12-Gal4 (BDSC_49478), and R19C02-Gal4 (BDSC_49282) were provided by the Bloomington Drosophila Stock Center. The mCD8-GFP and 3XPax3-GFP markers and the carT43A mutant have been described25 (link). UAS-WNK-RNAi and UAS-fray-RNAi transgenes and their effectiveness in knocking down the relevant target have been described10 (link). The UAS-Ncc69-RNAi line (VDRC KK106499) was obtained from the Vienna Drosophila Resource Center (VDRC). The Ncc69r1, Ncc69r2 and Gli-Gal4; UAS-Ncc69 flies13 (link) were a gift from Dr. William Leiserson (Yale University, New Haven, CT). The MZ709-Gal4 line was a gift from Dr. Hong-Sheng Li (University of Massachusetts Medical Center, Worcester, MA).
