Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Egg chambers in PsGEFΔ21/PsGEFΔ55 females are morphologically normal and there are no defects in border cell migration.

The alpha lobes of the mushroom bodies are thinner in PsGEFΔ21 mutants than in wild type. Visualisation of late born alpha/beta lobe neurons indicates that the alpha lobes are thinner than normal in the mutants because the alpha lobes are often short, and their positions along the beta lobes vary.

34% of late-born PsGEFΔ21 alpha/beta neuron single cell clones have branching defects, with the axon that normally grows towards the alpha lobe being missing.

The morphology of the alpha'/beta' lobes of the mushroom bodies is normal in mutant flies.

Additional Comments
Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

Heterozygosity for one of Cdc424, Rho1E3.10, Rac2Δ, Pak6 or MtlΔ has no effect on the phenotype in the alpha lobes of the mushroom bodies that is seen in PsGEFΔ21 animals.

Heterozygosity for Rac1J11 enhances the phenotype in the alpha lobes of the mushroom bodies that is seen in PsGEFΔ21 animals; a pair of alpha/beta lobes is missing in 90% of the double mutants.
