Expressing vvldsRNA.UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32 in a vvldfr-B129 heterozygous background results in melanized spots in the cuticle, Malpighian tubules and gastric caecum, and abnormal morphology of the fat body in third instar larvae. Expressing vvldsRNA.UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4c729 in a vvldfr-B129 heterozygous background results in melanized tissues and death prior to eclosion.

In vvldfr-B129/+ embryos less than 2% of muscles 12 and 13 fail to be innervated and only 4% of ISNb axons leave the ventral muscle field and target the transverse nerve (TN) fascicle. In vvldsRNA.Scer\UAS, vvldfr-B129/+ embryos with Scer\GAL4Lim3.B or Scer\GAL4ftz.ng, ISNb motor axons leave the ventral muscle field and contact or target the transverse nerve (TN) fascicle. There is also an overall decrease in muscle innervation by ISNb motor axons in these embryos.

When homozygous somatic clones are made in the lateral projection neurons, no significant change is seen in cell numbers within clones. These clones do show a decrease in the number of lateral landmark glomeruli innervated. 8/10 lateral of the glomeruli are still innervated by clones, but VA4 is never innervated. DM5 is missing about half the time.

Tracheal structures are defective in homozygotes, although some tracheal tissue is present.

Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

In vvldfr-B129/+ embryos less than 2% of muscles 12 and 13 fail to be innervated and only 4% of ISNb axons leave the ventral muscle field and target the transverse nerve (TN) fascicle. The expressivity of these phenotypes is enhanced to 22% and 16.5% respectively by Df(2L)E71/+, to 21% and 16% respectively by tupisl-1/+ and to 29% and 24% respectively by Lim36/+. These phenotypes are not enhanced by exexKK30/+. In tupisl-1, Lim36/+; vvldfr-B129/+ embryos, the ISNb motoneurons fail to project to and innervate their specific target muscles, including muscles 12 and 13.
