hypomorphic allele - genetic evidence
Insertion mutant.
Insertion of about 1.6 kb.
The level of the tra2 1.7kb transcript is reduced in male and female traOTF/Df(2R)trix heterozygotes.
abnormal sex-determination
Homozygous XX flies are intersex.
Ovaries rudimentary (Fujihara, Kawabe and Oishi, 1978).
Homozygous XX flies have appreciable levels of Yp1, Yp2 or Yp3 proteins in the haemolymph. Homozygous flies also heterozygous for tra1 have only a trace of these proteins in the haemolymph.
