Polytene chromosomes apparently normal.
Mutants show a significant developmental delay and somewhat smaller larval body sizes than normal, but no obvious morphological neuromuscular junction phenotypes.
Enhances the Cbx phenotype in Ubx1:Cbx-1/In heterozygotes.
Developmental delay and reduced bristle phenotype.
Heterozygotes have shorter bristles than wild type flies. Eclosion is delayed by 24 hours.
Bristles very small; aristae often reduced; venation px-like. Hatches late. Viability about 70% wild type and variable. Fertility good. RK2.
Arose as: Mosaic.
Useful as marker in clonal analysis.
