Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Mutant animals exhibit an decreased sensitivity to cocaine.

Homozygotes have a scalloped wing phenotype.

Shows dominant wing scalloping.

Flies show disruption of the wing margin resulting in scalloping of the wing.

Third-instar larvae show 20-40 degenerating cells in area of wing disk corresponding to future wing margin.

Scalloping visible in prepupal wing bud.

Extreme allele usually without the bubbles in the wing; shortened L5 a constant character; wings more pointed than Bx2 and hairs at tip of wing clumped. RK1.

Additional Comments
Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

The scalloped wing phenotype seen in Bx3 homozygotes is enhanced by vgnull/+.

The scalloped wing phenotype seen in Bx3 homozygotes is unaffected by vg83b27/+.

The scalloped wing phenotype seen in Bx3 homozygotes is rescued by Dp(2;Y)G44, although the wings have rigidity defects.

Bx3/+ fully separable from wild-type.

Alleles fall into an allelic series based on cocaine resistance phenotype. BxJ > Bx1 = Bx2 = Bx3.

Bx3 in heterozygous combination with a Bx deficiency or Bx has normal wing phenotype.

No interaction with Doa alleles is observed.
