E(spl)m8-HLH1.tNa is an enhancer of eye phenotype of Nspl-1

Additional Comments
Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

Addition of E(spl)1.tNa to Nspl-1 flies enhances the "split" eye phenotype, in a manner indistinguishable from E(spl)::HLHmδcNa and which phenocopies E(spl)1. A substantial reduction is seen in the number of ommatidia and an increase in cell death, as concluded from the characteristic "blueberry" phenotype.
