Statement
Reference
Mutant embryos exhibit a strong loss of cluster II slou expressing muscle founder cells and of cluster I slou expressing muscle founder cells.
When hemizygous, shows patterning defects evident in the denticle belts.
Embryos exhibit naked cuticle with little denticle diversity.

Statement
Reference
Suppressed by nonsence suppressors ElfLR16 and eRF1KY7.
The lawn of denticles phenotype seen in homozygous wgPE4 embryos at 25oC is suppressed by eRF1KY7 or ElfLR16. In both cases, this effect is a dominant maternal effect; wgPE4 homozygous embryos laid by a female heterozygous for wgPE4 and one of the suppressor mutations show suppression of the wgPE4 phenotype, whether or not the male parent carries the suppressor mutation. The wgPE4 phenotype is suppressed more completely in wgPE4 homozygous embryos derived from females carrying both eRF1KY7 and ElfLR16.
Heterozygosity or homozygosity for Df(3L)H99 does not result in noticeable suppression of the wgPE4/wgDE segment polarity phenotype, and there is no noticeable increase in denticle number.
wgPE4,pucA251.1F3 double mutants show a novel loss of dorsal cuticle phenotype.
