Fully viable in transheterozygous combination with In(3R)karH4. Shows reduced viability in transheterozygous combination with Df(3R)kar-H9, Df(3R)kar-H11, Df(3R)kar-H12 or In(3R)karH6. Lethal in transheterozygous combination with Df(3R)kar-H14, Df(3R)kar-H5, Df(3R)kar-H1, Df(3R)kar-H13, Df(3R)kar-H2, Df(3R)kar-H10 or Df(3R)kar-H3.
In(3R)karD/In(3R)karH4 viable
Heterozygotes have mottled ocelli, with some retinal cells appearing fully pigmented. This phenotype is suppressed by the addition of a Y chromosome, indicating a position effect phenotype Homozygotes have reduced viability. Imagos often do not eclose and surviving males are sterile. Eye colour varies from orange to brown.
karD/+ flies exhibit bright red eyes characteristic of kar homozygotes; ocelli not completely colorless; seem to variegate, Addition of an extra Y chromosome to karD/+ shifts the phenotype toward wild type. Homozygotes show reduced viability.
Shows dominant position-effect variegation for an unidentified l(3).
Distal breakpoint is near 87C8.
