robo2dsRNA.Scer\UAS knockdown MARCM clones (in a female Scer\GAL4fru-NP0021 mAL cluster) do not develop a male-specific ipsilateral ectopic neurite (as seen in robo1GD2608 knockdown clones).
The expression of robo2dsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Pdf.PU does not significantly affect the length of sLNv axons compared to controls.
The expression of robo2dsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.247 leads to significant decreases in migration velocity, as well as in filopodial and lamellopodial extensions in embryonic heart cardioblasts, as compared to controls.
Females expressing leadsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Poxn.14 do not show midline crossing by foreleg gustatory receptor neuron (GRN) axons (this phenotype is the same as in wild-type females). Males expressing leadsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Poxn.14 show reduced midline crossing by foreleg GRNs compared to that seen in control males.
Expression of a single copy of leadsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 or Scer\GAL4sca-375.1 has no effect on visual system development.

The co-expression of robo2dsRNA.Scer\UAS and robo3dsRNA.Scer\UAS, but not of robo2dsRNA.Scer\UAS and robo1dsRNA.Scer\UAS, under the control of Scer\GAL4Pdf.PU results in adult sLNv neurons exhibiting significantly longer axon projections compared to controls.
Males and females simultaneously co-expressing robodsRNA.Scer\UAS, leadsRNA.Scer\UAS and robo3dsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Poxn.14 show severe disruption of foreleg gustatory receptor neuron axon morphology, with axons collapsing onto the midline.
Simultaneous co-expression of robodsRNA.Scer\UAS, leadsRNA.Scer\UAS and robo3dsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 results in defects in visual system development; distal cell neurons invade the developing lamina. Simultaneous co-expression of robodsRNA.Scer\UAS, leadsRNA.Scer\UAS and robo3dsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4sca-375.1 results in distal cell neurons invading the developing lamina. The distal cell neurons and lamina glia are intermingled in these animals. In addition defects in photoreceptor axon targeting are seen, with the regions of mistargeting correlating with the regions where the distal cell neurons enter the lamina. Simultaneous co-expression of robodsRNA.Scer\UAS, leadsRNA.Scer\UAS and robo3dsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL results in many photoreceptor axons extending through the lamina and too many photoreceptor axons entering the medulla. Simultaneous co-expression of robodsRNA.Scer\UAS, leadsRNA.Scer\UAS and robo3dsRNA.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PF does not result in any defects in photoreceptor axon targeting.
