    Detailed Description
    Statement
    Reference

    Myd88kra-1 flies show increased mortality to systemic infection with F. graminearum, F. verticillioides, A. parasiticus, A. flavus, A. fumigatus, B. cinerea and N. crassa when compared to controls.

    Myd88kra-1 adults do not exhibit any changes in mortality as a result of heat-killed Enterococcus faecalis or heat-killed Micrococcus luteus infection when compared to controls

    Compared to wild type controls, adult Myd88kra-1 flies are much more susceptible to septic infection by the Enterococcus faecalis bacterium, the yeast Candida glabrata or the filamentous fungus Fusarium oxysporum. In contrast, septic infection with the Enterobacter cloacae bacterium has no significant effect on survival.

    Myd88kra-1 flies show an elevated bacterial load above that of control levels during the course of Enterococcus faecalis infection, indicative of a defect in infection resistance.

    Embryos laid by homozygous Myd88kra-1 or Myd88kra-56/Myd88kra-1 mothers fail to gastrulate properly and die as hollow tubes of dorsal cuticle. The Filzkorper is present in these embryos.

    Reference

    Myd88kra-1 suppresses the increased mortality phenotype of BbdΔ homozygous adults infected with either heat-killed Enterococcus faecalis or heat-killed Micrococcus luteus.

    Embryos laid by homozygous Myd88kra-1 and Tl3/+ mothers show a completely dorsalised phenotype. When tor::tubt4021t is injected into embryos laid by snkunspecified mothers, significant rescue of the dorsalised phenotype is seen. Some ventrolateral pattern elements are seen, such as ventral denticle belts and Filzkorper, which are never seen in Myd88kra-1 mutant embryos.
