XY dsx1/dsx34 animals show less midline crossing by foreleg gustatory receptor neuron (GRN) axons than seen in control XY males, although they still show a much higher level of midline crossing by foreleg GRN axons than seen in control XX females. XX control females and XX dsx1/dsx34 animals show an extremely low level of midline crossing by foreleg GRN axons.
When crossed to Df(3R)dsx2D, progeny are viable and display the dsx phenotype.
