Dp(1;f)γ878/Dp(1;f)22A heterozygotes increases y+ expression, to 33% of full Dp(1;f)γ158 trans-suppression. y+ expression is quantitated in triple row bristles.
Acentric mini-chromosomes are lost at a moderate but elevated rate during male germline mitotic divisions and in female mitosis, but appear to be transmitted efficiently through pre-blastoderm mitoses and male meiosis. mit(1)15 can localise to the mini-chromosome. Acentric mini-chromosomes are normally inherited, transmission is achieved by a mechanism similar to normal centromere-containing chromosomes, which utilises nod and mit(1)15 and involves movement to the spindle poles. Newly generated acentric fragments from the tip of the normal X chromosome do not display neocentromere activity in male meiosis I.
Chromosome is 225kb in size.
Monosome transmission behaviour from both male and female parents is highly unstable, all heterochromatin is deleted.
"Terminal" deletion.
