follicle cell & actin filament | somatic clone
Homozygous clones in the border follicle cells result in severe defects in border cell migration. Cells in homozygous follicle cell clones have reduced F-actin accumulation compared to neighbouring control cells. Homozygous clones result in defects in bristle morphology.
In homozygotes, lethality acts at the 2nd or 3rd larval instar. When heterozygous with wild type, a few additional veins develop.
