male sterile (with Df(2L)Prl), with prdwt
When wild-type females previously mated to wild-type males are mated with Tm1gs1 males (which ejaculate seminal fluid but no sperm) the proportion of females with no stored sperm is significantly less than for females that have not undergone a second mating. However when the second mating is with prd4/Df(2L)Prl; prdwt males (which do not ejaculate at all) the proportion of females with stored sperm is no different to that seen when the second mating is with Tm1gs1 males, suggesting that seminal fluid is not necessary for the loss of stored sperm on mating.
Wild-type females mated to prd4/Df(2L)Prl males rescued by prdwt extrude their ovipositors when subsequently challenged with wild-type males. The frequency of ovipositor extrusion elicited by the prd4/Df(2L)Prl males rescued by prdwt is almost the same as that elicited by control males. However, wild-type females that had been mated to prd4/Df(2L)Prl males rescued by prdwt and then challenged with wild-type males all remate within an hour, in contrast to wild-type females that had been mated to wild-type males and then challenged with wild-type males, which do not remate within an hour.
Females mated with sons of prdwt; prd4/Df(2L)Prl mothers only show a partial stimulation of oviposition during the first day after mating and lay about 25% of the clutch induced by mating with wild-type males. This stimulation is enhanced slightly, but remains constant at 30-35% of oviposition induced by wild-type for at least 5 days. These females' post copulation receptivity is indistinguishable from wild-type. When wild-type virgin females are mated with prdwt; prd4/Df(2L)Prl males (who are normally sterile, lacking accessory glands) followed by tud1 males (which are also normally sterile, lacking sperm) a few offspring are produced. However when this experiment is performed in reverse (copulation with tud1 males first) no restoration of fertility is seen.
Mutant cuticular phenotype of prd4/Df(2L)Prl transheterozygous embryos is rescued partially by one copy of and completely by two copies of P{prd-Gsb} and P{prd-Pax3}, two copies of P{prd-Gsb} can rescue embryos to adult flies. Single copy of P{prd-SN20} can rescue prd4/Df(2L)Prl transheterozygous embryos to adulthood.
prd4/Df(2L)prd1.7 and prd4/Df(2L)Prl transheterozygotes only survive to adulthood in the presence of a copy of P{prd-SN20}. These adults give rise to fertile offspring.

When gsbprd.PX is added to Df(2L)Prl/prd4 animals, males survive to adulthood but are sterile and have smaller or no accessory glands. The addition of prdmf5 to prd4/Df(2L)Prl animals that have been partially rescued by gsbprd.PX, fully rescues the male sterility phenotype. When CycEScer\UAS.cLa or dmScer\UAS.cZa (driven by Scer\GAL4mf9) is added to Df(2L)Prl/prd4, (partially rescued by a weakly expressing prdmf9 line), the accessory gland phenotype is reduced, and male fertility is restored. When CycEScer\UAS.cLa or (driven by Scer\GAL4prd.3.1) is added to Df(2L)Prl/prd4, however, no rescue is seen. When Df(3L)H99, Df(3L)th102 or Pi3K92EScer\UAS.T:Hsap\MYC is added to Df(2L)Prl/prd4 animals (already partially suppressed by the addition of prdmf9) no suppression is seen in the accessory gland or make sterility phenotypes.
The addition of gsbprd.PX to prd4/Df(2L)Prl flies produces male flies that are sterile. These males exhibit normal copulatory behaviour. The testes, the ejaculatory duct, and the ejaculatory bulb are without obvious morphological defects. In addition, a normal amount of sperm is transferred to females during copulation. However, accessory glands are completely absent in these flies.
prdΔPBC or prd+mXa rescues the larval pair rule phenotype and embryonic lethality seen in prd4/Df(2L)Prl animals; however rescue with prdΔPBC leads to a distorted segmentation phenotype in adult cuticles. prdΔPBC rescues accessory gland development and male fertility (not fully) to a similar extent as prd+mXa in prd4/Df(2L)Prl; however rescue with prdΔPBC leads to significantly reduced fecundity (fewer progeny) compared to rescue with prd+mXa. prdwt fails to rescue accessory gland development in prd4/Df(2L)Prl males. prd4/Df(2L)Prl males rescued with prdΔPBC show lower mating success compared to those rescued with prd+mXa, though they show no significant difference in climbing ability. Females mated to prd4/Df(2L)Prl males rescued with prdΔPBC (even two copies) behave like virgins, with low egg-laying, high receptivity and low rejection; mutant males rescued with prd+mXa behave similar to controls.
