Polytene chromosomes normal.
Heterozygous adults have wild-type wings.
The temperature sensitive heterozygous combination, Dlvi1/Dl6B leads to animals that exhibit a ISNb axon bypass phenotype. These axons reach their targets via an aberrant trajectory, in which ISNb axons remain associated with the ISN. About 23% of hemisegments are affected. The formation of neuromuscular synapses to ventral longitudinal muscles occur as efficiently in mutant animals than in controls. Other kinds of ISNb misrouting phenotypes are seen at a low frequency. However gross stalling of ISNb axons is not seen, nor are defects in muscle development.
Heterozygotes have extreme extra microchaetae phenotypes.
Homozygous adults exhibit a high penetrance of tarsal segments 3 and 4 fusion.
Homozygous viable. Slight δ-like thickenings at posterior tips of wing veins 2, 3, 4 and 5; roughening of eye. Dlvi1 homozygotes also show shortening and frequent fusion of tarsal segments. A few homozygous embryos fail to hatch, showing patchy neuralization in cephalic and ventral territories. Dlvi1/+ normal. Trans heterozygotes with dominant alleles show extreme wing, eye and tarsal abnormalities.
