Expression of
Pros261.Scer\UAS in the eye with
Scer\GAL4GMR.PF causes a mild rough eye phenotype ad occasional loss of pigmentation in approximately 20% of flies.
When expression is driven by two copies of
Scer\GAL4sca-537.4, temperature sensitive lethality results. Flies die as pharate adults showing a strong multiple socket phenotype. When expression is driven by one copy of
Scer\GAL4sca-537.4 at 29
oC from 0 to 24hr APF the majority of sense organs appear to be wild type. Those sense organs that are mutant show double socket or sheath cells.
