Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

y2S males have significantly reduced mating success compared to control males. The Dp(1;f)1187 minichromosome rescues the mating success of these mutants. y2S adults show a reduction in pigmentation in the wing and a partial reduction in the body, bristles and sex combs. Larval mouth pigmentation is also reduced.

Body colour: type 2 allele - some areas of cuticle are wild type, others have mutant pigmentation.

Body colour: body yellow, but darker than that of y2; bristles lighter. Larval mouth part colour: golden-brown; mouth-hooks light.
