corresponding eyespot on the adult wing |
green fluorescent protein is produced in precise patterns on the butterfly wing by laser activation of the correspondent gene through a cut-out stencil |

the EGFP gene is turned on via the Drosophila heat-shock promoter that responds to changes in cell temperature produced by the laser |
