Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

ush1 homozygous embryos are U-shaped.

Mutant embryos show an significant increase in the average number of crystal cells (of about 30%) as compared to wild-type.

Homozygous mutant embryos at stage 11 show an increase in cardial cells seen per segment, a few hemisegments contain nine cells with an average of six present in many clusters (as compared to the four seen per hemisegment in wild-type). At stage 13, embryos possess supernumerary cardioblast nuclei - up to 12 nuclei per hemisegment with 8 cells per cluster on average. There is also an increase in the number of eve expressing pericardial cells seen - from three per cluster in wild-type, to 5-6 per cluster in homozygous mutants. There also appears to be a defect in mesodermal cell migration. Embryos display an irregular layer where mesodermal cells remain clustered and fail to undergo their complete dorsal migration.

strong embryonic lethal No shortening of the germ band. Lateral fusion of anterior and posterior hypoderm.

Embryos heterozygous for htlAB42 and ush1 show a strong mesodermal migration defect. Also about half show a loss of cells from the dorsal mesoderm.

Both midgut primordia extend normally along the visceral mesoderm and the yolk is completely engulfed by the endoderm.
