NOT in combination with other aberrations
Because of the In(1)wm4/wa constitution, C(1)M4 females without a Y chromosome display strong variegation, those with YS moderate variegation and those with YL or a complete Y almost no variegation. A powerful enhancer of autosomal recombination, but has low viability in combination with autosomal rearrangements.

      Detachment rate approximately 1/15,000. Useful in maintenance of XY-bearing stocks without a free Y. Some derivatives are marked with y2 bb-.
