Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Homozygotes die as late embryos. btD/btl-a transheterozygotes die as embryos.

Embryo cannot hatch from vitelline membrane: due to muscle weakness: embryo is flaccid. Heterozygous adults have a slight bristle phenotype.

When found showed regularly divergent wings with some angular bend near base. Legs lumpy at low temperature. Preleg bristles present as in bt1.

Comments

bt phenotype no longer observed (Hochman, 1976).

Balanced stocks in existence today show only preleg bristle character and recessive lethality.

Molecular analysis of the "Df(4)bt-D" rearrangement indicates that it is not a deficiency or a translocation. The most probable rearrangement is an inversion, or possibly a relatively large insertion. The banding pattern of the polytene chromosomes is normal.
