Zygotic mutant embryos have cuticle defects, although large patches of cuticle remain.
shgunspecified mutant embryos have many holes in the cuticle, which have necrotic rims. The head is grossly distorted.
shg[+], CadN[+], CadNunspecified, shgunspecified is an enhancer of decreased cell number | adult stage phenotype of jusiso7.8
CadNunspecified/+, shgunspecified/+; sdaiso7.8/+ mutants display a more severe decrease in numbers of hub cells, germline stem cells and cyst stem cells in the testicular niche as compared with sdaiso7.8/+ mutants.
Marked clones in the eye disc expressing Ras85DV12.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PI and which are also homozygous for shgunspecified do not show metastatic behaviour, although the cells cause disc eversion defects during metamorphosis.
