Df(2R)BSC49 can rescue some hybrid males to the pharate adult stage at 18[o]C, depending on the genetic background (hybrids are the progeny of D. melanogaster Df(2R)BSC49 females mated to D.mauritiana males).
The deficiency chromosome retains the miniwhite marker from P{EP}EP2344 and/or P{EP}CG14478EP2283.
