eye, with Df(2L)DTD2, dppTgR46.1
gena, with Df(2L)DTD2, dppTgR46.1
In dppTgR46.1/Df(2L)DTD2, dppSal20 flies the ventral head is disrupted, the eye is round rather than oval, the sensory vibrissae on the ventral side of the eye are bunched, the maxillary palps are missing, reduced or duplicated, and gena tissue appears to be missing.
dppTgR46.1/Df(2L)DTD2, dppSal20 flies show head capsule defects. The sensory vibrissae on the ventral side of the head are disrupted, with vibrissae missing at the posterior end, and bunched or duplicated at the anterior end. The maxillary palps are either missing, reduced or are sometimes duplicated. In extreme cases, both the anterior rostral membrane and gena tissue are greatly diminished. The eyes are round instead of oval and are small due to a small, but statistically significant reduction in ommatidia number.
Third star imaginal discs appear normal in size and shape in dppTgR46.1/Df(2L)DTD2, dppSal20 larvae.
Third star dppTgR46.1/Df(2L)DTD2, dppSal20 eye-antennal discs show increased cell death, particularly in the disc proper.

Expression of dppScer\UAS.cNa under the control of Scer\GAL4dpp.s-hc at 29oC causes an almost complete rescue of the head capsule defects of dppTgR46.1/Df(2L)DTD2, dppSal20 mutants. Expression at 27oC is less effective and causes a 55% reduction in penetrance while expression at 25oC results in a 22% reduction in penetrance.
dppSal20 rescues both the embryonic and shortvein region lethal phases, and in a null background, animals die during pupation with a dpp disk class V mutant phenotype.

dpp sequences remaining in this allele are sufficient for correct expression of dpp in parasegments 4 and 7 of the visceral mesoderm.
Sufficient to rescue all Hin and shv functions.
