hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Homozygotes have normal activity rhythm periods. The period of mD CkIIβAnd flies is indistinguishable from that of CkIIβAnd/+ flies and is significantly shorter than that of CkIIβAnd homozygotes.
Normal circadian rhythms, but aperiodic bouts of activity. Bristles on wing are bent and twisted. Dose-dependent effects of cell boundary degeneration: absent in wild type and intact in homozygotes.
Wings of homozygote smaller than m/m. mD/+ wings intermediate between homozygote and wild type. Viability 20-50% normal in males and 5% in homozygous females; most die in embryo. Fertility low in homozygous females. Wing size of mD/m and mD/dy intermediate between mD/+ and mD/mD. RK2.
