hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Marker analysis indicates that pale ommatidium type R8 cells adopt a yellow ommatidium R8 cell fate in sev[unspecified] homozygous eyes.
The R8 cell of ommatidia of the dorsal rim area (DRA) of the eye develops normally in mutant animals. These flies lack all R7 cells.
The eyelet has well developed rhabdomeres in mutant flies.
Displays locomotor activity rhythm with an approximately 24h period.
Gap1mip-w+ sevunspecified flies have an excess of small rhabdomeres.
Homozygotes lack the R7 photoreceptor cell.
Pattern discrimination in sevunspecified flies is similar to wild-type. The number of visits to pattern targets is less in sevunspecified flies than wild-type. The reaction to the mid-point between two arranged targets is more in sevunspecified flies than wild-type. sevunspecified ort1 double mutant flies show no pattern discrimination, but do show phototaxis to illuminated non-pattern targets.
