Linked to:
HpaI-BglII restriction fragment
Comment:

Rescues the ben1 phenotype; the actual rescue fragment is slightly larger, extending beyond the HpaI site to a NotI site contributed by the vector; position of restriction fragment on reference genome inferred by FlyBase curator.

      Reference

      Complete rescue of all aspects of the ben1 mutant phenotype: behavioural, physiological and anatomical defects. Flies jump to a visual stimulus, show the fast physiological driving of the TTM jump muscle and both the giant fibre and rhabdomere R7 projections exhibit wild type morphology.
