Somatic clones in the eye exhibit recruitment of a mystery cell as an outer neuron, but no hypertrophy of neural development.
Embryos show severe cuticular and nervous system defects. Usually the cuticle fails to develop. Position of remaining Filzkorper indicate that germband retraction fails. Defects can be seen as early as the late syncytial blastoderm. Clonal analysis revealed that sno is required for oogenesis.
