Egg chambers arrest in early vitellogenesis in mutant females.

Homozygotes show a 20% reduction in wing area and a 42% reduction in body mass compared to wild-type controls. The mean number of cells per wing and the mean cell size in the wing are both reduced in the mutant flies. A significant increase in both median and maximum lifespan is seen in both homozygous males and females compared to controls. Homozygous females produce significantly fewer eggs compared to wild-type females. Wild-type females mated to homozygous males produce normal numbers of offspring.

Lnk^d07478/Lnk^Del29 animals show a 16% reduction in wing area and a 34% reduction in body mass compared to wild-type controls.

Body length is decreased by 11% compared to controls in homozygous third instar larvae and body weight is decreased by 21% in homozygous adults. Homozygous adults have wings that are reduced in size as compared to controls, due to a decrease both in the size and number of cells.

Total triglycerides are increased by 92% in the fat bodies of homozygous adults compared to those of control wild-type animals. Hemolymph trehalose levels are increased by 37% in homozygous flies compared to controls. Whole body trehalose and total sugar levels are increased by 102% and 85% respectively in homozygous flies compared to controls.

Homozygous and Lnk^d07478/Lnk^f02642 files show increased survival under starvation conditions compared to wild type.

Homozygotes show an increase in lifespan compared to control; the median lifespan is increased by 14% in male and 33% in female flies, while the maximal lifespan is increased by 14% in male and 15% in female flies.

Homozygotes show increased resistance to paraquat compared to wild type.
