No second site non-complementing phenotype with zipEbr and zipmhc-c6.1.
Shows no maternal enhancement of dpphr4.
Dominantly causes tergite defects in less than 50% of run3 heterozygotes.
Heterozygotes with Df(2R)44CE exhibit aberrant migration of the germ cell.
Deficient embryos show an uninterpretable mutant midgut phenotype.
Homozygous embryos show abnormal dorsal closure and tracheae are abnormal.
Heterozygosity for this deletion has no effect on the mutant ovarian phenotype of ovoD2.
The stock contains a second-site deletion uncovering l(2)gl.
Associated with: wunCN.
Recovered as apparent cn double recombinants from test crosses of dysgenic-type males that were heterozygous for a maternally derived dp b cn bw second chromosome and paternally derived autosomes extracted from natural populations and capable of promoting male recombination.
The Df(2R)cn9 chromosome acts as a dominant weak 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), but this is a false positive result (the suppressor is not within the bounds of the deficient region) because the region of the deficiency is covered by one or more nonsuppressing deficiencies.
