Homozygous germline clones are viable but yield no eggs.
Larvae grow at a normal rate until late in the third larval instar. Puparium formation can be delayed. Mosaic analysis demonstrates mutant phenotype is non-autonomous.
pharate adult lethal; growth slowing starts at various earlier stages; survive in hemizygous condition in gynandromorphs; hemizygous eyes rough.

Shows a maternal-zygotic interaction, demonstrated in males carrying mutant allele from heterozygous mother and variegating allele in the paternally derived Dp(1;4)mg.
