Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

danyex11/Df(2R)BSC802 adults are viable but males are completely sterile with abnormal testes: they are smaller in size than wild-type, full of spermatocytes and do not contain any sperm tail bundles. danyex11/Df(2R)BSC802 males also display meiotic division defects. Although meiotic cells are present they lack normal centrosomes with regular number of centrioles at the opposite poles, the meiotic spindle is often kinked or multipolar and they fail to progress to anaphase.

The nuclear lamina of danyex11/Df(2R)BSC802 stages S3 and S5 (but not S2) spermatocytes is ballon-like lacking the deformations correlating with chromatin distribution seen in wild-type.

Comments

The male sterility of flies is completely rescued by combination with either of the following: dany+t4.45, danyN.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP or danyC.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP but not by combination with danyAAA.C.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP or expression of danyScer\UAS.N.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP under the control of Scer\GAL4bam.T:Hsim\VP16 in the mutant background.

dany+t4.45 also rescues the morphological defects in spermatocyte nuclear lamina of danyex11/Df(2R)BSC802 adult males, danyC.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP rescues their testes defects: spermatogenesis is able to progress beyond spermatocyte stages and spermatids with elongated sperm tails are observed, which are significantly ameliorated also by combination with danyAAA.C.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP (spermatogenesis is able to progress beyond spermatocyte stages and spermatids with elongated sperm tails are observed but seminal vesicles are always devoid of motile sperm).
