      Scer\GAL4GMR.PU, ben+t6, benGD1387, egrUAS.cIa has visible phenotype

      Statement
      Reference

      One copy of ben1 partially suppresses the small eye phenotype seen in females expressing egrScer\UAS.cIa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PU. ben1/Y fully suppresses the small eye phenotype. This suppression is reverted upon expression of ben+t6.

      Expression of benGD1387 strongly suppresses the small eye phenotype seen in flies expressing egrScer\UAS.cIa under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PU. This suppression is partially reverted upon expression of either ben+t6, benEP1651 or bend09936.

      ben+t6 rescues ben1

      (Ma et al., 2014)

      ben+t6 rescues ben1

      (Oh et al., 1994)
      Comments

      Expression of ben+t6 rescues the reduced oxidative stress resistance and shortened lifespan seen in ben1 mutant males.
