Affected Genes Inferred by Location (0)
    If no genes are listed here, it may be because the affected region is very large. The JBrowse insert above may show an error for the same reason, and other FlyBase tools such as CytoSearch may also fail for large regions. You can contact FlyBase for more help.
    In these cases, there will be no "Export to Hitlist" button to the left.
    Phenotypic Data
    In combination with other aberrations

    Df(2L)MN-I is semi-lethal in combination with Df(2L)TW137. Surviving males and females have reduced fertility.

    Inferred to overlap with: Df(2L)H20.

    NOT in combination with other aberrations

    Flies heterozygous for the deletion show a Minute bristle phenotype.

    The Df(2L)TW137 chromosome does not act as a dominant suppressor of telomeric silencing (assayed using the effect of the chromosome on the eye colour phenotype of flies carrying "P{wvar}KR3-2", a stable "brown-red" variant of the P{3'WP-2,wvar}2Lt insertion).

    Heterozygosity for Df(2L)TW137 results in 1.0% X chromosome nondisjunction and 0.0% fourth chromosome nondisjunction in In(1)FM7/X ; svspa-pol females.

    Df(2L)TW137 in combination with a pair of introgressions from D.simulans spanning 30F1-31E7 to 35D7-36A14 Dsim\Int(2L)S and 21A1 to 22D1--23A2 Dsim\Int(2L)D produces fertile male flies. These flies are female sterile.

    Does not cause unconditional lethality in hybrid females when heterozygous with D.simulans chromosome.

    No second site non-complementing phenotype with zipEbr and zipmhc-c6.1.

    Heterozygosity for this deletion has no effect on the mutant ovarian phenotype of ovoD2.

    Moderate Minute.
