amorphic allele - genetic evidence
lethal | recessive
lethal - all die before end of prepupal stage | recessive
some die during prepupal stage | recessive
imaginal disc
Imaginal discs remain as vesicles.
Lethal period in prepupae after formation of gas bubble. Puparium is weakly pigmented. Dying prepupae accumulate black pigment.
br8 heterozygotes with 'rbp' alleles (except brrbp-1) are lethal with few adult escapers. Heterozygotes with Df(1)br25 have reduced viability and br wings.
Deficient in 'rbp' function.
