Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

The viability of SxlfP7B0/+ females is significantly reduced if they also carry one maternally-derived copy of msl-21.

One maternally-derived copy of msl-21 significantly reduces the viability of scsisB-1 sisA1/+ females so that they show almost complete lethality. One paternally-derived copy of msl-21 significantly reduces the viability of scsisB-1 sisA1/+ females, although this zygotic effect is generally weaker than the maternal one.

Ovaries of ovoD1rv23/ovoD1rv22 females contain germline chambers in less than 20% of cases. The phenotype is not affected if the females are also carrying msl-2138/msl-21.

Some females homozygous for msl-21 and heterozygous for Sxlf1 have sex combs on the basitarsi of their forelegs. This phenotype occurs with a higher frequency in females with homozygous msl-21 mothers.

Comments

Clonal analysis indicates that msl-2 acts in a cell autonomous manner, and is required in imaginal discs and histoblasts at some time after blastoderm formation in males. The requirement in the imaginal discs is late in development, during mid to late third instar. Clonal analysis also shows that the msl-2 mutation does not affect sexual differentiation.

H4Ac16, acetylated form of His4, is not localised to the X chromosome in male salivary gland nuclei.

γ ray induced revertants of msl-21 are cytologically normal.
