168bp deletion (nucleotides 677-845) in exon 5.
Reported as a 168 base deletion from at nucleotides 677-845.
Flies containing homozygous eyes (induced using the eyFLP method) have a glossy-eye phenotype.
Homozygous eye discs (induced by the eyFLP method) fail to incorporate BrdU properly, but have an essentially normal patterning of neuronal clusters emerging from the morphogenetic furrow (as assayed by elav expression).
Selected as: a mutation that results in a "glossy-eye" phenotype in flies containing homozygous eyes (induced using the eyFLP method).
