At all temperatures 1--40% br2Bd/T(1;2)dorvar7 females have 1-2 bristles on maxillary palps missing or reduced.
Deficient in 'rbp' function.
Rare survivors heterozygotes and heterozygotes with Df(1)RA19 exhibit faded wings, swollen abdomen and reduced bristle number on the palpus. Most individuals die at the late pupal stage.
Males and homozygous females display normal phenotype and viability; however, in heterozygous combination with deficiencies or 'npr' mutations, temperature-sensitive lethal; completely lethal at 29oC; at 25oC or 18oC most individuals die in late pupal stage and survivors have faded wings, swollen abdomen and reduced bristle number on palpi.
No change in late gene expression in br2Bd individuals.
