Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL/Bmor\ixUASp.cSa is a suppressor of cercus | female phenotype of Df(2R)en-B/ix3
Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL/Bmor\ixUASp.cSa is a suppressor | partially of hypogynial long bristle phenotype of Df(2R)en-B/ix3
Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL/Bmor\ixUASp.cSa is a suppressor | partially of prothoracic metatarsal segment transverse row bristle | female phenotype of Df(2R)en-B/ix3
Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL/Bmor\ixUASp.cSa is a non-suppressor of abdominal tergite 6 | female phenotype of Df(2R)en-B/ix3
Expressing Bmor\ixScer\UAS.P\T.cSa, under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL does not fully rescue the ix3/Df(2R)en-B phenotype. Moreover, wild-type female development is not fully restored when two copies of Bmor\ixScer\UAS.P\T.cSa are present. These females also manifest some morphological defects. Pigmentation of abdominal tergite 6 is male-like. The dorsal and ventral anal plates, however, are present and appear normal. The vaginal teeth are present in two neat rows but there are gaps where bristles would be expected to be present. Likewise the last transverse row bristles, which form the sex combs in the male, appear mostly female-like, but are slightly darker and rotated upward.
