    Processes of single cell homozygous astrocyte clones are largely restricted to the surface of the neuropil and the size of the astrocytic domain is severely reduced compared to controls.

    stumps09904b homozygous clones in the dorsal air sac primordium grow normally but never contribute to the tip of the primordium.

    Pericardial cells fail to form in mutant embryos, due to defects in mesoderm migration.

    Tracheal cells fail to move out from the tracheal epithelial sacs and only rudimentary tracheal branches form. Mesodermal cells also fail in their dorsal migrations after gastrulation.

    The peripheral nervous system appears normal, however there are defects in the central nervous system. These included increased separation, irregularities, and occasional breaks in the longitudinal connectives and fusions and irregularities in the transverse connectives. The initial steps in tracheal development are normal. However, during stages 11-14, when tracheal cells in the sac normally migrate toward bnl expressing cell clusters and form primary branches, tracheal cells in stumps09904b mutants move very little. During stages 15-16, when the first terminal branches should be forming the tracheal sacs in mutants are still unbranched with only an occasional rudimentary branch. stumps09904b also has a an effect on the mesoderm. Mesoderm cells appear to invaginate normally at the ventral midline but fail in their dorsal migrations. This phenotype manifests itself in older embryos as an absence of the heart and most other dorsal mesoderm derivatives. This phenotype decreases in severity from dorsal to ventral positions, implying that the mesodermal cells that fail to migrate can still undergo many aspects of normal ventral muscle differentiation. There is also a visceral muscle phenotype that includes the absence of the second gut constriction. Heterozygotes do not show a tracheal phenotype. The tracheal phenotype of hemizygous (stumps09904b/Df(3R)ry506-85C or stumps09904b/Df(3R)γ2) embryos is indistinguishable from stumps09904b homozygotes.

    Homozygous embryos have defects in the mesoderm and tracheal system. Determination of tracheal cell fate and cell division are normal, but the tracheal cells do not migrate and consequently the tracheal network fails to form. The invaginated mesodermal tube fails to flatten and spread properly in homozygous embryos. It does disperse into individual cells and the cells that contact the ectoderm eventually migrate dorsally. Later in development, no heart precursors are detected, the musculature is disrupted and less visceral mesoderm is produced than normal. Tracheal cell migration is rescued in stumps09904b embryos expressing stumpsScer\UAS.cVa under the control of Scer\GAL4btl.PS; migration defects in these embryos are restricted to the visceral branch, probably due to the visceral mesoderm defects in these embryos. Mesodermal defects are rescued in stumps09904b embryos expressing stumpsScer\UAS.cVa under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PGa.

    Germline clones homozygous for part of the "l(3)09904" chromosome (which carries both stumps09904b and l(3)09904c09904c) made by homologous recombination using the FRT3R-82B site at 82B produce abnormal eggs due to abnormal oogenesis: collapsed eggs.

    Mesodermal cells in stumps09904b stg4 double mutant embryos are able to disperse from the site of mesoderm invagination.

    Expression of btlScer\UAS.cDa or btl::htlBH.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4btl.PS does not rescue any aspect of tracheal development in btlH82Δ3 stumps09904b double mutant embryos. Expression of btl::torScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4btl.PS significantly rescues tracheal development in btlH82Δ3 stumps09904b double mutant embryos. Ganglionic branches are rescued almost completely, dorsal branches develop in more than 50% of segments and dorsal trunk fusion occurs efficiently. The lateral trunk does not fuse in these embryos and ectopic terminal cell formation is seen. Expression of btl::EgfrScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4btl.PS significantly rescues tracheal development in btlH82Δ3 stumps09904b double mutant embryos. The dorsal trunk is disrupted in some embryos, some dorsal branches are missing or misguided and the lateral trunk fails to fuse. Some of the ganglionic branches fail to form and do not migrate in the proper direction. Expression of htlScer\UAS.cDa or btl::htlHB.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PG does not rescue pericardial cell development in stumps09904b embryos. Expression of htl::torScer\UAS.cDa or Egfr::htlScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4twi.PG efficiently rescues pericardial cell development in stumps09904b embryos.

    stumps09904b, bnl00857 double heterozygotes show a dramatic increase in tracheal outgrowth defects, with nearly four times as many stalled ganglionic branches as the bnl00857 heterozygote alone. The double heterozygotes also displayed increased dorsal branch outgrowth defects compared to bnl00857 heterozygotes as well as rare dorsal trunk outgrowth defects never seen in bnl00857 heterozygotes. When expression of bnlScer\UAS.cSa is driven in the mesoderm of a stumps09904b mutant by Scer\GAL4twi.PG, the portions of the tracheal sacs near the bnlScer\UAS.cSa expressing cells significant cytoplasmic outgrowth and ramification of terminal branches. Some erratic of primary branches also occurs. These features are not normally seen in stumps09904b mutants. When expression of Ras85DV12.Scer\UAS is driven in the trachea of mutants by Scer\GAL4btl.PS or Scer\GAL4hs.PB, tracheal cells show erratic outgrowth of primary branches. These features are not normally seen in stumps09904b mutants. stumps09904b/btlLG18 double heterozygotes did not show any tracheal defects. When expression of Ras85DV12.Scer\UAS is driven by Scer\GAL4twi.PG in stumps09904b embryos, some random mesodermal migrations are restored.

    Expression of Ras85DV12.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4btl.PS in stumps09904b mutant embryos partially rescues tracheal morphogenesis. Expression of phl::tor13D.hs.sev in stumps09904b mutant embryos partially rescues tracheal morphogenesis. Expression of btl::tor4021.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4btl.PS in stumps09904b mutant embryos does not rescue tracheal migration defects. Expression of tor13D.hs.sev in stumps09904b mutant embryos induces some tracheal branching.
