This deletion removes a single ribosomal protein-coding gene (though other genes are also removed).
Has no effect on the frequency of X-Y chromosome nondisjunction seen in Df(1)X-1-53B males.
Df(2R)knSA3 fails to complement Df(2R)XTE-18.
Df(2R)XTE-18/Df(2R)KL32 viable (MacIntyre, pers.comm. 3rd Aug 1993)
Flies heterozygous for the deletion do not show a Minute bristle phenotype.
The Df(2R)XTE-18 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).
Dominantly causes tergite defects in less than 50% of run3 heterozygotes.
Homozygous embryos are very abnormal compared to wild-type.
Heterozygosity for this deletion has no effect on the mutant ovarian phenotype of ovoD2.
Defects in gut formation and epidermal patterning.
