Ecdysone regulates Drosophila wing disc size via a TORC1 dependent mechanism
During development, organs grow to achieve a size necessary for their function; how final organ size is sensed to trigger growth arrest, however, remains unclear. Here the authors show that Drosophila wing disc size is determined by the hormone ecdysone through a TORC1-dependent mechanism.
