The wing phenotype of Dp(1;2)51b flies is suppressed by Dp(3;3)bxd110.
The increased number of thoracic bristles seen in Df(1)N-81k1 heterozygotes is rescued almost to a wild-type number by Dp(1;2)51b.
Single cells from Dp(1;1)Co/Dp(1;1)Co ; Dp(1;2)51b/Dp(1;2)51b embryos transplanted into the ventral neurogenic region of wild-type host embryos give rise to a reduced proportion of neural cells compared to wild-type controls.
Does not cover the lethality of T(1;4)wm258-21.
Dp(1;2)51b/In(1)wm51bLwmJR males have slightly mottled eyes.
Covers In(1)wm4Lrst3R. The lethality of In(1)wmJLrst3R males is covered by Dp(1;2)51b.
Does not cover Df(1)w258-45 or Df(1)w-rG. Covers In(1)wm4Lrst3R.
Flies carrying two copies of Dp(1;2)51b in an otherwise wild-type background have a wing phenotype indistinguishable from that of DlM1/+ heterozygotes. This phenotype is enhanced by DlM1.
Heterozygotes exhibit a thickened vein phenotype.
Chromosome in combination with sno1 exhibits near wild type phenotype (small deltas remain, there is some thoracic hairiness and the eyes are not completely smooth): mutant phenotype is suppressed.
Duplication is viable and used to cover lethality of N in studies of pseudoallelism at the N locus (FBrf0014640).
Duplication for the X chromosome region w+, rst+ through N+ to dm+ inserted into the second chromosome.
