Eye colour: the dorsal 30% of the eye is pigmented in hemizygotes of both sexes, but the ventral 70% is completely white in females and sectored in males carrying one copy of w69C in a w- background. Males homozygous for w69C in a w- background have eyes with nearly solid red pigmentation with a lighter equator. About 10% of females homozygous for w69C in a w- background have a small pigmented sector in the ventral half of the eye.
Eye colour: females carrying w69C in a w- background only show expression of w in the dorsal part of the eye (w expression is silenced in the ventral 70% of the eye). Eye colour: males carrying w69C in a w- background show expression of w in the dorsal part of the eye and in addition have sporadic red sectors in the ventral part of the eye.

Eye colour: the expression of w69C in females carrying w69C in a w- background is unchanged if they are also carrying roX1ex6 Df(1)52 P{w+4Δ4.3}. Eye colour: males carrying w69C in a w- background that are also carrying roX1ex6 Df(1)52 P{w+4Δ4.3} show almost complete derepression of w69C expression in the ventral part of the eye.
