Homozygous embryos exhibit a severe germband retraction phenotype, virtually all embryos are curled into round, denticle less balls. Internal tissues of the germband exhibit abnormalities. Kr staining reveals abnormalities in the amnioserosa.
Enhances the female sterility and adult morphological defects of Egfrt1. Rarely survives as transheterozygote with the semi-viable Egfrtop-CA allele.
The mesoderm is less uniform than in wild-type embryos at the extended germ band stage. It is arranged in clusters of cells that are not always connected, due to disruptions in the regions opposite the parasegmental grooves.
Fusion of the longitudinal connectives and loss of the horizontal commissures of the CNS is seen in homozygous EgfrJE1 embryos at the retracted germ-band stage.
Homozygotes and hemizygotes display a severe 'flb' phenotype. Embryos produced from heteroallelic combination with Egfrt1 have a severe ventralised phenotype, reduction in size of their dorsal appendage.
Mutation of Egfr that affects the gene function required for imaginal disc derivatives, a class IV lesion.
Germline clone analysis indicates that there is very little, if any, requirement for Egfr in the germline.
Class I allele. This allele was originally thought to be a class IV allele, but the weak wing venation abnormalities observed for the allele were due to suppression by a px mutation on the same chromosome.
