P{lacW} insertion at +188 relative to the inx2 transcription start site, in the untranslated leader region.
abnormal feeding behavior | larval stage
lethal | embryonic stage | recessive
lethal | larval stage | recessive
lethal - all die before end of larval stage
some die during larval stage
Mutant larvae show a feeding defect. About two-thirds of mutant animals die as embryos and one-third die during the first larval instar.
Lethality occurs during the first larval instar.
Excision of the P{lacW} element can revert the lethal phenotype.
