Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

eggnull/Df(2R)Dll-MP transheterozygotes are semi-lethal, display a low male:female ratio, and the few males die within 2-3 days; eggnull/Df(2R)ED4065 transheterozygotes are near lethal and no adult males eclose. eggnull/Df(2R)Dll-MP and eggnull/Df(2R)ED4065 transheterozygous adults exhibit shaky, uncoordinated movements and held-out wings that are incompletely expanded, as compared to controls; the locomotor and wing phenotypes of eggnull/Df(2R)Dll-MP transheterozygotes are more pronounced in males than in females.

The ovaries of eggnull/Df(2R)Dll-MP transheterozygous females that also express eggScer\UAS.cTa under the control of Scer\GAL4tj-NP1624 do not display any obvious early oogenesis defects, namely in germline stem cells differentiation, in germline cyst formation and encapsulation, in egg chamber budding from the germarium and in early oogenesis progression, but egg chambers arrest and undergo apoptosis at stage 5 of oogenesis, as compared to controls.

eggnull homozygotes and eggnull/eggGS7132 trans-heterozygous escapers have spread-out wings.

Scer\GAL4arm.PS-mediated expression of eggScer\UAS.cTa rescues the eggGS7132 and eggGS7132/eggnull phenotypes.
