      Reference

      Approximately 20% of eggs laid by mfrZ1386/Df(3L)h-i22 females produce are abnormal. The defects are visible in late stage eggs as abnormally short and closely apposed dorsal appendages, signifying a ventralized egg chamber. mfrZ1386/mfrZ4070 and mfrZ0695/mfrZ1386 females also produce defective eggs with a penetrance of approximately 41% and 35% respectively.

      Only 43% of the total eggs laid by mfrZ4070/mfrZ1386 females mated to wild-type males hatch. The hatch rate is similar between the eggs that have wild-type eggshell morphology and those with defective dorsal appendages. The mutant embryos show delayed development compared to controls.

      Partially rescued by

      mfrZ0695/mfrZ1386 is partially rescued by mfr+t10.7

      (Smith, 2007)
      Comments

      Expression of one copy of the mfr+t10.7 transgene reduces the penetrance of the defective egg phenotype seen in eggs laid by mfrZ1386/mfrZ0695 females. Expression of two copies effects a complete rescue of the egg phenotype.
