Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

br2Bc-1/+ flies show the same susceptibility to methoprene as wild-type flies.

At 25oC, about 25% of brBC3/br2Bc-1 females have malformed third legs, while at 29oC, 40% have malformed legs. br25.4/br2Bc-1 escapers have malformed third legs and wings and sometimes have deformed heads.

br2Bc-1/Y eye discs do not show any defects. Homozygous clones in the eye disc appear normal.

Homozygotes arrest development in late prepupae or in early pupae just after head eversion.

Homozygotes die as late prepupae or early pupae.

The Pig1 to Sgs4 switch fails to occur during mid-third instar.

Lethality acts at the late prepupal or early pupal stage.

Failure of salivary gland degeneration. Reduction in dorso-ventral class of indirect flight muscles. Proventriculus abnormality: foregut-midgut junction less proventriculus-like in appearance. Malpighian tubules and yellow body failed to develop, pupae and pharate adults contain multiple convoluted tubules.

There is no significant interaction between zip and br2Bc-1.

38% penetrance of abnormal SEG-TG separation phenotype, 34% of individuals have an abnormal optic lobe position and 64% with brain fusion failure. A few individuals also showed failure of head eversion and overt holes in the cuticle.

br2Bab-1/br2Bc-1 heterozygotes have malformations of the basitarsus on the third pair of legs.

Puparium formation delayed by 6 hours. Many of the late ecdysone puffs in both larvae and prepupae are either absent or underdeveloped.

Puparium formation delayed 6 hr. Many late ecdysone puffs both in larvae and prepupae either absent or underdeveloped (FBrf0037666).

br2Bc-1 is partially rescued by brZ2.hs

Comments

The br2Bc-1/brnpr-6 heteroallelic combination is lethal. The offspring die as 2nd to 3rd instar larvae.

br2Bc-1 animals are rescued by expression of brBRcore.NS.Z3.hs during larval development. Rescued flies that eclose have wild-type legs and wings and live for several days as fertile adults. br2Bc-1 animals are partially rescued by expression of brZ2.hs during larval development. Rescued flies that eclose have malformed wings and legs and die very soon after eclosing. br2Bc-1 animals are not rescued by expression of brBRcore.Q1.Z1.hs or brBRcore.TNT.Q1.Z1.hs during larval development.

Comments

Defects in the activity of early puffs may cause underdevelopment of late puffs.

No change in ecdysone late gene expression in br2Bc-1 individuals.
