A little pre-Christmas reading for my planar polarity follower(s) – I’m sure there’s at least one of you!

The Fat-Dachsous planar polarity pathway competes with hinge contraction to orient polarized cell behaviors during Drosophila wing morphogenesis.

The Fat-Dachsous planar polarity pathway competes with hinge contraction to orient polarized cell behaviors during Drosophila wing morphogenesis
Morphogenesis involves interactions between biochemical and mechanical cues. Trinidad et al. show that during Drosophila pupal wing morphogenesis, Fat-Dachsous planar polarity competes with tissue tension to control oriented cell behaviors. Moreover, junctional tension stabilizes Fat-Dachsous, supporting the existence of biomechanical feedback.
