hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Dsor1 mutant alleles do not suppress the eggshell dorso-ventral polarity defect of the Egfrt2 maternal mutation.
Egfrf3/Egfrt2 wings have a gap in L4 wing vein.
Transheterozygous females with Egfrf2 display egg chambers with gaps in the follicular epithelium that uncover the nurse cells. Eggs derived from these females display weak or intermediate ventralised phenotypes.
Expression of phlF22.hs in the anterior follicle cells of heterozygotes with Egfrt1 causes dorsalisation of the egg chamber.
Homozygous adult viable.
Weak ventralization of embryos. Filzkorper are normal. Only one dorsal appendage forms. 51% of laid eggs contain embryos. Mesoderm is wider than usual and cannot be enveloped by remaining epidermis. Two ventral furrows form.
Does not suppress the "Ellipse" phenotype. Hemizygotes die during pupariation, and have abnormally small dorsal imaginal discs.
Viable as a homozygote and hemizygote. Adults exhibit milder eye defects than would be expected from the severity of the wing and haltere defects.

Statement
Reference
16% of Egfrt2 hup1 double homozygous egg chambers are dicephalic, and an additional 12.5% of double homozygous egg chambers (either dicephalic or with the oocyte normally localised) show degenerated nurse cells. 10% of double homozygous egg chambers have multiple layers of follicle cells at the posterior end. In some cases, these follicle cells try to migrate centripetally at the posterior, splitting the cytoplasm of the oocyte.
Egfrf3/Egfrt2 vein gap can be rescued by one copy of sev::tor13D.hs.sev. Ectopic expression also causes extra vein phenotype, notably around the distal end of L2 and broadening or deltas at the distal tips of most of the veins.
