Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Animals expressing EcRA.hs have defects in the mushroom body α/β lobes: the lobes may appear slim or underdeveloped, or the β lobes may be fused.

Expression of EcRA.hs using heat shock results in germaria that are filled with supernumerary germline cells containing a single spectrosome in females. After 7 days of heat shock treatment, 67% of germaria contain dumbbell-shaped fusomes.

Heat induced expression of EcRA.hs (using a single heat shock for 45 minutes at 37oC) has little effect on viability with only 15-25% of the animals dying when the heat shock is administered at the time of the ecdysone peak.

Comments

Expression of EcRA.hs via heat pulses every 12 hours during development can efficiently rescue EcRM554fs/EcRV559fs animals to the first larval instar stage (100% rescue).
