Breakpoint(s) molecularly mapped
According to molecular data (Levis et al., 1982), the white-associated breakpoints of Df(1)w-zh and Dp(1;3)wzh are not identical. Dp(1;3)wzh carries sequenced beginning between the coordinates -3.2 and -1.4 and extending rightward, with 0 the site of the copia insertion in wa.
z males and females when homozygous for Tp(1;3)wzh have 'halo' eyes (z in center, w+ on periphery) as do z females that are homozygous for Dp(1;3)wzh (Jack and Judd, 1979). z males homozygous for Dp(1;3)wzh, however, have w+ eyes as do z males and females heterozygous for Dp(1;3)wzh. The transposition mutates frequently (Judd, 1975). Some mutations from wzh show changes in the amount and distribution of eye pigment; other mutations involve lethality.
