Allele: Dmel\Rh53
Imprecise excision of P{RS5}5-SZ-3619 results in a 1059bp deletion of the C-terminal end of Rh5.
Rh53 mutants requite a longer time for retrainment than cryb mutants.
Rh53 is a non-enhancer of photoperiod response variant phenotype of cryb
A Rh53 mutant background does not affect the ability of cryb mutants to adapt to a new phase of green light (472-603nm) and Y-FL (475-724nm).
ninaE17 Rh53 Rh61 cryb quadruple mutants are not retrained by green light (472-603nm) and Y-FL (475-724nm).
