Detailed Description

Statement

Reference

The adult lifespan of nec¹ homozygotes is greatly reduced at 18[o]C, 25[o]C or 29[o]C temperature, as compared to wild-type flies. The adult lifespan of nec¹/nec² trnsheterozygots is greatly reduced at 25[o]C or 29[o]C temperature, as compared to wild-type flies.

(Green et al., 2003)

80% of nec¹/nec² flies die within 48 hours of eclosion at 25^oC.

(Ligoxygakis et al., 2002)

nec¹/nec² mutant animals display melanotic spots on the cuticle.

(Michel et al., 2001)

nec¹/nec² flies survive for several days though the females are sterile. The nec mutant phenotype of Df(2R)sple-D2/Df(2R)nap2 is indistinguishable from that of nec¹/nec². Between 10 and 20% of nec¹/nec² larvae show brown spots around the posterior spiracles. Approximately 10% of the mutant pupae fail to eclose. Adult nec¹/nec² flies show a patchy distribution of melanotic spots of variable position and intensity on cuticular surfaces, but not internally. Their abdomens gradually swell with hemolymph and are extremely distended by 48 hrs post eclosion. The epidermal cells of adult nec¹/nec² flies undergo necrosis, in sites corresponding to the melanotic spots. An additional layer of healthy epidermal cells is seen beneath the necrotic cells. The necrotic mutant phenotype is pleiotropic and it is unclear what causes the lethality of adult nec mutant flies.

(Green et al., 2000)

Homozygotes are pharate adult lethal or die within 24 hours of eclosion.
