  • Abstract
    The generation of planar cell polarity (PCP) and tissue shape during morphogenesis is tightly linked, but it is not clear how. now show in the developing Drosophila wing that PCP initially has a radial orientation that becomes realigned to the proximal-distal axis of organ shape by mechanical forces and cell rearrangements mediated by Dachsous.
