(A,B) Representative immunofluorescence images of the tissues quantified in both conditions, stained with DAPI (white) to measure tumor volume. Wing discs are highlighted by the yellow dotted lines. Scale bars = 50 mm. (C) Quantification of wing disc tumor volumes from uninfected dlg mutant larvae (Uninfected, n = 33) or from dlg mutant larvae infected with Pcc (n = 28). (D,E) Representative immunofluorescence images of the quantified tissues that have been stained with the anti-Dcp1 antibody (red) to measure tumor cell death. F) Quantification of wing disc tumor cell death  in dlg mutant larvae uninfected (Uninfected, n = 33) or infected with Pcc (n = 28). Results are presented as a pool of two independent replicates (****p < 0.0001; Student’s t-test).
