hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Eggs laid by armi[1]/armi[72.1] females have dorsal appendage defects; 11.7% have fused dorsal appendages, 88.1% lack dorsal appendages and 0.2% have wild-type dorsal appendages.
Only 2% of eggs derived from armi[1]/armi[72.1] females have two wild-type dorsal appendages, compared with 11% if the females are fed caffeine.
armi72.1/armi1 eggs show fused appendages in 67.6% of cases, no appendages in 28.9% of cases and the wild-type number of appendages in 3.5% of cases. In armi72.1/armi1 oocytes, both the anterior and later posterior microtubule-organizing centers are much less prominent than in wild-type oocytes.
Homozygous females produce eggs where 67% completely lack dorsal appendages (indicating strong dorsal/ventral patterning defects).
75% of progeny derived from homozygous males mated to wild-type females hatch. 67% of eggs derived from armi1 females lack dorsal appendages, while some of the eggs have wild-type or partially fused dorsal appendages.

Statement
Reference
The dorsal appendage defects seen in eggs laid by armi[1]/armi[72.1] females are partly suppressed if the females are also homozygous for lok[p6]; 16.1% of the eggs have fused dorsal appendages, 7.3% lack dorsal appendages and 76.6% have wild-type dorsal appendages.
56% of eggs derived from mei-41[D3]/mei-41[D3] ; armi[1]/armi[72.1] double mutant females have normal dorsal appendages, but the fraction of embryos with normal dorsal appendages increases to 83% if the females are fed caffeine.
The fused dorsal appendage phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 eggs is suppressed in lokp6; armi72.1/armi1 eggs with 92% of double mutants showing wild-type appendage morphology. The mei-41D3 mutation partially suppresses the fused dorsal appendage phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 eggs; 56% of mei-41D3; armi72.1/armi1 eggs show wild-type appendage morphology. The fused dorsal appendage phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 eggs is not suppressed in mei-W681/mei-W68k05603; armi72.1/armi1 eggs. The microtubule-organizing center phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 oocytes is suppressed by the lokp6 mutation. The microtubule-organizing center phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 oocytes is partially suppressed by the mei-41D3 mutation.
armi1 osk1 double mutant ovaries have microtubule defects that are cytologically identical to the armi single mutant phenotype.
