Homozygous mutants exhibit the classical ss traits: reduced bristle size, transformation of distal antennal parts into the tarsal segments of the mesothoracic leg and fusion of tarsal segments in legs and in transformed aristae. Mutation is also characterised by amplification of the sex combs of the first tarsal segment on the first leg in male homozygotes. Transplantation of leg imaginal discs into ready-to-pupate Oregon R larvae demonstrates the proliferation of cells that form the metatarsus is suppressed, whereas cells that give rise to the proximal parts of the tarsus proliferate at an excessive rate.

Induction of Antphs.PHTA expression causes severe tarsal defects, tarsal structures resemble mini-tibia. Antennal structures look unusual due to overgrowth of the second and third antennal segments and proximal structures of the homeo tarsus. Induction of Dfdhs.PK expression causes overgrowth of the third antennal segment and of proximal parts of the homeo tarsus. Legs exhibit enlargement of the proximal part of the tarsus. Induction of labhs.PH expression causes shortening of tarsi in all antennal and leg structures. Third segment of the antenna exhibits a multiple bristle phenotype.
