FlyBase curator comment: this entry is used to capture phenotypic information when the particular allele (or allele combination) used by the author could not be determined but the context of the experiment suggests that the phenotype being described is some kind of loss of function.
Low concentrations of ethyl acetate evoke responses of Ca2+ activity in the mushroom bodies of wild-type flies but not of acj6 mutants.
Detectable defects in the gross axonal structure of the ventral nerve cord are not seen in mutant embryos. The initial pathfinding steps of mutant SP interneurons are unaffected.
