Internal deletion of the P{EP} element, with 74bp of the element remaining.
nurse cell & nuclear chromosome
45% of pUf6813/Df(3L)Ar14-8 egg chambers contain only eight germline cells at room temperature. In many cases the nurse cells fail to transfer all of their cytoplasm to the oocyte before egg shell deposition. pUf6813 mutant egg chambers sometimes contain seven nurse cells and an oocyte, in these cases the oocyte always has three ring canals, indicating that only three rounds of mitosis have occurred in this egg chamber. Nurse cell chromosomes remain polytene throughout oogenesis in pUf6813 egg chambers.
