hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
sax[3] exhibits a very low level of viability (0.6-2%) in trans to Df(2R)H23, sax[1rv1], sax[1rv5] and Df(2R)sax-H9. Hemizygous adult escapers display wing venation defects (50% penetrance), while females display 100% maternal effect lethality with severely reduced egg production. Less than 5% of sax[3]/Df(2R)H23 hemizygous mutant larvae exhibit developmental delay, lethargy, a reduction in the size of imaginal discs, brain | larval stage, and midgut structures, as well as trachea | larval stagel truncations.

Reference
When dpp[hr4]/+ males are crossed to sax[3]/+ females, the resulting dpp[hr4]/+ progeny do not show any significant drop in viability compared to the dpp[hr4]/+ progeny of wild-type mothers in control crosses.
