The anterior wing margin of sc10-1 pupae males is missing chemosensory bristles and shows a small but statistically significant reduction in the number of stout bristles compared to wild-type wing margins. At the pupal stage there is an absence of chemosensory clusters but there is no significant reduction of mechanosensory precursors. However, the number of neurons that develop from the mechanosensory precursors is severely reduced in sc10-1 pupae and there is a decrease in the number of socket cells.
sc10-1 mutants show no thoracic bristles.
sc10-1 mutants show loss of the posterior supra-alar, posterior notopleural, anterior notopleural and anterior postalar thoracic bristles to varying degrees.
Homozygous third instar larvae show a normal response to UVC radiation.
Glial cells of wing nerves are absent in adult wing and almost completely absent in the developing wing.
Developmental capacities of germ cells homozygous for this allele were studied in pole cell transplants: fertile females and males result.
Neither macrochaetes nor microchaetes form on the notum: no sensory mother cells develope. BrdU labelling shows that arrangement of mitotically quiescent cells is wild type.
Dorsal and ventral rows of chemosensory organs are absent in pupal wings.
80% of female scsisB-1/sc10-1 embryos die. All female scsisB-1/sc10-1 embryos heterozygous for Sxlf1 die. Approximately 85% of homozygous female sc10-1 embryos die. This lethality is completely rescued by one copy of SxlM1. These flies survive to adulthood and show an extreme sc10-1 phenotype. Female embryos heterozygous for sc10-1 and deficient for one copy of sisA show 30% lethality.
The basitarsi of the second legs are reduced in width and length and have no bristles. The 8.5p sensillum is missing.
Lack sense organs on the notum and other areas.

Approximately 95% of sc10-1/+; da10/+ trans-heterozygous flies exhibit missing post-vertical head bristles.
Knockdown of Act5C through expression of Act5CGD1351 under the control of Scer\GAL4dpp.blk1 results in a dramatic increase in the percentage of sc10-1 flies missing campaniform sensilla. Likewise, knockdown of Act5CGD1351 by Scer\GAL4pnr-MD237 in the sc10-1/+ fly notum markedly increased the percentage of flies missing anterior dorso-central mechano-sensory macrochaetae from 30% to 87%, and missing posterior dorso-central macrochaetae from 0% to 24%.
sc10-1/+; Act5CEY11969/+ double heterozygotes exhibit some loss of post-vertical head bristles in 45% of flies.
The percentage of the double heterozygous sc10-1/+; +/+; Act5CG0010/+ flies missing post-vertical head bristles are no significantly different or only mildly increased compared with sc10-1/+ flies.
sc10-1; sensE2/+ flies show a severe loss of stout bristles at the wing margin in comparison to sc10-1 single mutants, which show a small loss of these bristles. At the pupal level the sc10-1; sensE2/+ double mutants are almost completely lacking the neurons that should have developed from the mechanosensory precursors; this is an enhancement of the reduced number of neurons seen in sc10-1 single mutant pupae. The double mutants also show a greater loss of socket cells than the single mutants.
Expressing one copy of sens+t11 in a sc10-1 background restores the number of stout bristles to near wild-type numbers.
Expression of daScer\UAS.cGa in the thorax, under the control of Scer\GAL4Eq1, leads to the generation of numerous bristles on the thorax of sc10-1 mutants. These mutants have no thoracic bristles without the transgene expression.
Expression of sensScer\UAS.cNa in the thorax, under the control of Scer\GAL4Eq1, leads to the generation of bristles on the thorax of sc10-1 mutants. The amount of bristles generated by sensScer\UAS.cNa is insertion-dependent; the weak P{UAS-sens.N}C6 insertion leads to the presence of only a few bristles, while the strong P{UAS-sens.N}C5 insertion generates more bristles.
Coexpression of daScer\UAS.cGa and sensScer\UAS.cNa in the thorax, under the control of Scer\GAL4Eq1, leads to the generation of multiple bristles on the thorax of sc10-1 mutants; these bristles are present at a much greater density than those on wild-type thoraces or indeed the density produced by expressing either daScer\UAS.cGa or sensScer\UAS.cNa alone.
Expressing BacA\p35Scer\UAS.cHa in the wing margin, under the control of Scer\GAL4C96, in a sc10-1 background rescues the stout bristle loss seen in sc10-1 mutants. At the pupal level, BacA\p35Scer\UAS.cHa, expression also rescues the loss of neurons seen in the single mutants. However, this expression also results in the appearance of ectopic neurons at the posterior wing margin, a place where such neurons are not found in wild type. These neurons send out axons which merge with the marginal nerve that runs along the anterior wing margin towards the thorax.
sc10-1 is partially rescued by sc+mDC.SMC
In female D.simulans/D.melanogaster hybrids that carry In(1)ac3 and sc10-1, the bristle phenotype at 18oC is no different to wild-type D.simulans/D.melanogaster hybrids. At 25oC a bristle phenotype is seen in simulans/D.melanogaster hybrids that carry In(1)ac3 and sc10-1 that is not as strong as wild-type D.simulans/D.melanogaster hybrids.
Bristle phenotype not rescued by sc+ transgenes.
