Homozygotes are viable and do not display obvious growth phenotypes.
rin2/rinNP3248 and rin2/rinNP5420 animals are viable without phenotypic alterations.
rin2 mutant eyes, generated by eyFLP/FRT-mediated mitotic recombination, show an increase in ommatidial number, without variability, under normal food conditions.
About 10% of eggs produced by rin3/rin2 mothers are ventralised. While the remainder of the eggs show seemingly normal eggshells, cuticle preparations of the embryos produced by rin3/rin2 mothers reveal severe defects in embryonic development. For example, many of the embryos are underdeveloped or have only scraps of cuticle.
Homozygotes and rin1/rin2 flies are viable and show a mild rough eye phenotype. Homozygous eyes show defects in both photoreceptor recruitment and ommatidial polarity. Many ommatidia have fewer than the wild-type complement of 8 photoreceptors and some have extra photoreceptors. Both inner and outer photoreceptors can be affected. Many mutant ommatidia with the normal complement of photoreceptors show polarity defects; both the degree and direction of rotation and the chirality of the ommatidia can be affected. The recruitment and polarity defects are evident in third larval instar imaginal discs.

Most rin2 Fmr1Δ113M double homozygous larvae die at an early stage, but a few escapers that reach the early pupal stage form long, slender pupae.
rinNP3248/rin2, Fmr1Δ113M/Fmr1Δ50M animals reach a late pupal stage - pupae are long and slender.
rinNP5420/rin2, Fmr1Δ113M/Fmr1Δ50M animals develop into adult flies that die soon after eclosion - pupae are long and slender.
rinT:Disc\RFP-mCherry rescues the slender pupae phenotype and lethality associated with rinNP3248/rin2, Fmr1Δ113M/Fmr1Δ50M animals.
rinT:Disc\RFP-mCherry rescues the slender pupae phenotype and lethality associated with rinNP5420/rin2, Fmr1Δ113M/Fmr1Δ50M animals.
rin2 Fmr1Δ113M double mutant eyes, generated by eyFLP/FRT-mediated mitotic recombination, show an increase in ommatidial number under normal food conditions. (Double mutants raised on food with reduced yeast content display eyes with a constant increase in ommatidial number, while mutants raised on increased yeast content show more pronounced variability in ommatidial number.) This phenotype is rescued to a rin2 like phenotype by inclusion of Fmr1+t14, and to a Fmr1Δ113M-like phenotype by inclusion of rin+t11.8, while rinT:Disc\RFP-mCherry does not completely rescue to a Fmr1Δ113M-like phenotype.
Eyes overexpressing CaprKK100145 in a rin2 background, generated using the eyFLP Actin-Flp out-Gal4 system, are overgrown owing to more ommatidia compared to controls.
Animals with eyes overexpressing CaprKK100145 in a Fmr1Δ113M rin2 background, generated using the eyFLP Actin-Flp out-Gal4 system, results in late pupal lethality, with strongly overgrown eye/head structures visible in the pharates.
Eyes expressing ligdsRNA.Scer\UAS.II in a rin2 background, generated using the eyFLP Actin-Flp out-Gal4 system, are overgrown owing to more ommatidia compared to controls.
The extra R7 photoreceptor cells seen in flies carrying sevS11.T:Hsap\MYC are reduced to an average of 2.32 +/- 0.11 R7 photoreceptor cells per ommatidium if the flies are also carrying rin2. 18.7% of ommatidia have an R7 cell in sev6; SosJC2 flies. This partial rescue of sev6 by SosJC2 is relieved by rin2; 18.2% of ommatidia have an R7 cell in sev6; SosJC2/+ ; rin2/+ flies.
28.7% of ommatidia have an R7 cell in sev6 ; SosJC2 flies. This partial rescue of sev6 by SosJC2 is relieved by rin1 or rin2; 13.9% and 18.2% of ommatidia have an R7 cell in sev6 ; SosJC2/+ ; rin1/+ and sev6 ; SosJC2/+ ; rin2/+ flies respectively.
Animals with rin2 Fmr1Δ113M double mutant eyes over-expressing BacA\p35Scer\UAS.cHa via eyFLP, Actin-Flp out-Gal4/FRT-mediated mitotic recombination, die as pharate adults except a few escapers that display massively overgrown eye structures.
