CG5027MB04280 adults shows the following locomotion defects in walking assays compared to controls: significant increases in the walking distance, number of clockwise movements, time active and maximum time active; significant decreases in the time inactive and maximum time inactive; but insignificant changes in the number of shifts between active/inactive state and time spent in the center of the assay plate.
CG5027MB04280/Df(3L)th102 flies are viable and fertile, indicating that the lethality of the Mi{ET1}CG5027MB04280 insertion chromosome is not due to disruption of the associated gene.
