Nucleotide substitution at position 3606 (coordinates from FBrf0058525) that changes the AG consensus dinucleotide at the 3' splice site of intron 8 to TG.
A23100858T
A3606T
Mutation in the splice acceptor site for intron 8.
Lethality occurs during larval or pupal stages. Homozygous germline clones display cell lethality. Embryos derived from heterozygous mothers exhibit neither CNS or PNS defects.
Homozygotes lethal at the larval stage; homozygous germ-line clones don't survive; no effect on development of peripheral or central nervous systems (Perrimon, Smouse, and Miklos, 1989). wa displays dilute apricot pigmentation in su(f)1/su(f)2 flies raised at 25oC but white eyes when raised at 18oC (Schalet and Lefevre, 1976). su(f)2 shown to be proximal to su(f)1 by recombination (Schalet).
su(f)2 lethality is unaffected by Hsap\CSTF3Scer\UAS.cBa; Scer\GAL4da.G32.
f1 su(f)2/f1 su(f)1 females are f+ at 24-25oC. f1 su(f)2/f5 su(f)1 females show suppression of the f mutant phenotype similar to that seen in f1 su(f)1/f5 su(f)1 females at 24-25oC. At 20-30oC, the f1 su(f)2/f5 su(f)1 combination shows suppression of the f mutant phenotype but bristles are Minute-like.

su(f)26, su(f)5 and su(f)2 exhibit the same pattern of complementation; complement su(f)4, su(f)13 and su(f)12. The allelic state of z has no effect on complementation behaviour.
