P{ry11} insertion within the first stwl exon.
female sterile
male fertile
ovary
Females lay few eggs and ovaries remain rudimentary.
stwl5 carries 2 P-elements separated by 3kb. Δ2-3 induced mobilisation of the P{ry11} element demonstrates the insertion is responsible for the female sterile phenotype.
