Description

Insertion of gypsy element, with its direction of transcription in the opposite orientation to the direction of Ubx transcription, into an intron of the Ubx transcription unit.

(Little et al., 1990)

Transposable element insertion.

      Haltere are transformed to wing and are 5-7.5% of wing size, dorsal tissue of T3 is incompletely transformed to metanotum, hypopleural plates are incompletely transformed to sternopleural plates, 3-5 hypopleural bristles are still present and the anterior third leg displays a strong transformation to anterior second leg, as seen by the bristle pattern. Phenotype can be suppressed by su(Hw) mutation.
