Polytene chromosomes normal.
Intragenic deletion, within the ss transcription unit. Proximal break between coordinates +21 and +23; distal break between coordinates +13 and +14kb.
Approximate boundaries of an intragenic deletion with the distal break between +13 and +14 and the proximal break between +21 and +23 in the coordinate system of FBrf0102306. The deletion roughly maps to a BamHI-EcoRI fragment on the Figure 1 map.

Antennal segments 1 and 2 are basically normal in ssD115.7/Df(3R)ss-D114.4 animals apart from a reduction in bristle size. Antennal segment 3 is composed of naked cuticle and the arista is turned into a fifth tarsal segment with claws.
Third larval instar ssD115.7 and ss134/ssD115.7 mutants show defects in class I dendrite morphogenesis; primary branch overgrowth and increased terminal branching of the class I dendrites is seen.
Single cell ssD115.7 clones (generated using the MARCM technique) of the ddaE neuron show increased terminal branching, while the outgrowth of primary dendrites is mostly unaffected.
Single cell ssD115.7 clones (generated using the MARCM technique) of the ddaD neuron show increased branching and dendrite routing defects. Secondary dendrites are misoriented and branches improperly terminate posterior to the cell body.
Single cell ssD115.7 clones (generated using the MARCM technique) of the ddaB neuron show increased dendritic branching at the distal tips of primary and secondary dendrites.
Single cell ssD115.7 clones (generated using the MARCM technique) of the ddaC neuron show reduced terminal branching and failure of dendrites to reach the dorsal midline. In contrast to the dendrite defects, the axon projections of these mutant clones show no obvious abnormality.
Single cell ssD115.7 clones (generated using the MARCM technique) of the ldaB neuron show a reduction of dendritic spikes along all major branches. In contrast to the dendrite defects, the axon projections of these mutant clones show no obvious abnormality.
Single cell ssD115.7 clones (generated using the MARCM technique) of the ddaF neuron show a reduction in the number of dendritic spikes and show clusters of longer terminal branches along the primary dendrites. In contrast to the dendrite defects, the axon projections of these mutant clones show no obvious abnormality.
The td neuron does not show any dendrite defects in ssD115.7 mutants.
In ssD114.9/ssD115.7 mutant legs, the tarsal segments ta2, ta3, and ta4 appear to be missing while the distal-most tarsal segment is present but malformed. Small, ectopic protrusions can occasionally be observed in ta1 of these mutants. At the leg disc stage, cells that normally develop into tarsal segments ta3-ta5 may possibly acquire the ta5 fate at a very early third instar stage and also incorporate the ta4 fate at subsequent stages to form a ta5/ta4 hybrid tarsus in late third instar.
When somatic clones of ssD115.7 are induced throughout the eye disc using Scer\FLP1ey.PN, eyes appear morphologically normal, but marker analysis indicates transformation of almost all yellow ommatidia into pale ommatidia.
In eyes in which R1, R6 and R7 are made homozygous for ssD115.7 by inducing somatic recombination using Scer\FLP1GMR.PP, marker analysis indicates that all R7 cells adopt a pale ommatidium R7 cell fate.
ssD115.7 heterozygous flies show a small but significant reduction in the ratio of yellow to pale ommatidia.
ssD115.7/Df(3R)ss-D114.4 animals show fusion of tarsal segments in the leg.
ssD114.7/ssD115.7 flies show transformation of the antenna to tarsus. Homozygotes show transformation of the antenna to a tarsus which does not show segmentation. Deletions of tarsal segments are seen in the leg. Distal deletions are seen in the maxillary palps. Homozygous clones result in a severe reduction in bristle size.
Null phenotype. Antennal transformations, reduction in bristle size and tarsal deletions. A3 has no bristles or trichomes and most of the distal tarsal region is absent. Tarsal segments 2-4 and part of segment 1 are deleted. First antennal sense organ is cauliflower shaped and has no clear stalk and the migration of the dorsomedial papilla is impaired.
ssD115.7 is a suppressor of third segment of antenna | ectopic | somatic clone phenotype of AntpNs-rvC3
ssD115.7 is a non-suppressor of photoreceptor cell R8 of yellow ommatidium | ectopic phenotype of sevunspecified
ssD115.7 is a non-suppressor of photoreceptor cell R7 of pale ommatidium phenotype of sevunspecified
Transformation of pale ommatidium type R8 cells into yellow ommatidium type R8 cells in sevunspecified homozygous is unaffected if the eyes are also ssD115.7/ssD115.7.
