Q450term
Homozygous gd8 embryos are completely dorsalised.
Injection of snkΔne.T:ea into the central region of homozygous embryos causes a lateralised/ventralised phenotype.
Transheterozygous combinations of gd mutations produce a range of cuticular phenotypes, ranging from cuticle only having dorsal characteristics, to cuticle having some ventral characteristics, such as ventral setal belts, depending on the alleles used. Some combinations of alleles complement each other.
dlunspecified, gd8 has embryo phenotype
One copy of dlS234P in a gd8 background produces dorsalised embryos. The addition of dlS234P in a dlunspecified, gd8 background, produces completely lateralised embryos.
Approximate order of allelic severity, from weakest to strongest is: gd5 > gd1 > gd3 > gd6 > gd2 > gd4 > gd7 = gd8 = gd9 = gd10 = gd11 = gd12.
