Genetic Data
Genes subject to position-effect variegation
Genes showing dominant position-effect variegation
Genes NOT subject to position-effect variegation
Other Information
Homozygous lethal. Heterozygote usually has good viability and fertility, although may not be as good as SM1. Most complete balancer for chromosome 2.
(Lindsley and Zimm, 1992)
Df(2L)TW50/SM5 shows reduced viability: only 4% of expected progeny survive. Ddc1/SM5 also shows reduced viability: only 24% of expected progeny survive.
