Genetic mapping information
Comments

Breakpoint 1 was mapped to a XhoI-HindIII restriction fragment based on Figure 6. The position of the restriction fragment on the reference sequence was inferred by a FlyBase curator.

(Roth et al., 1995)
Comments on Cytology

Left limit of break 1 from non-inclusion of heix (FBrf0092813) Right limit of break 1 from inclusion of cact (FBrf0077931) Left limit of break 2 from inclusion of cact (FBrf0077931) Right limit of break 2 from non-inclusion of mRpL4 (FBrf0092813)

Affected Genes Inferred by Location (0)
    If no genes are listed here, it may be because the affected region is very large. The JBrowse insert above may show an error for the same reason, and other FlyBase tools such as CytoSearch may also fail for large regions. You can contact FlyBase for more help.
    In these cases, there will be no "Export to Hitlist" button to the left.
    Phenotypic Data
    In combination with other aberrations
    NOT in combination with other aberrations

    Reintroduction of cni+t2.4 and fzy into the genome creates individuals only mutant for cact, referred to as cactIII18.
