A set of isogenic deficiency stocks created by FLP-induced recombination between FRT-carrying transgenic insertions; molecularly defined deletion endpoints correspond to initial location of the progenitor insertions. Initial set of 519 isogenic deletions provides 56% genome coverage.
The current Exelixis collection at the Bloomington Stock Center differs from the original described in FBrf0175003 : a significant number were shown not to carry a deletion and have been removed from the collection; a number of stocks have been lost; a number of additional deletions are included that were generated after publication.

Late stage 17 embryos homozygous for Df(2R)Exel6068 exhibit a normal muscle pattern, but the muscles in mutant larvae display an aberrant striation pattern. The F-actin striations are dramatically disrupted when compared to the periodic pattern in the control larvae.
