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.

    One copy of Df(3R)ea is unable to suppress position effect variegation (PEV) at the w locus caused by In(1)wm4.

    One copy of Df(3R)ea weakly suppresses the telomeric position effect (TPE) in stocks carrying a variegating P{hsp26-pt-T}39C-5 insertion at the telomere of the left arm of chromosome two.

    (Doheny et al., 2008)

    Heterozygosity for Df(3R)ea results in 13.2% X chromosome nondisjunction and 3.3% fourth chromosome nondisjunction in In(1)FM7/X ; svspa-pol females.

    (Harris et al., 2003)

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

    (Coyne et al., 1998)

    Weak second site non-complementing phenotype with zipEbr and zipmhc-c6.1 : malformed phenotype penetrance 10-24%.

    The Df(3R)ea chromosome may 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), but the eye colour phenotype in the presence of Df(3R)ea overlaps the eye colour phenotype in a wild-type background so it cannot be unequivocally demonstrated that the deficiency chromosome uncovers a suppressor of telomeric silencing.
