Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Eye and wing phenotypes (small rough eyes, abnormal wings) and some degree of lethality are seen in various PDZ-GEF allelic combinations, with their relative strength in the following order: PDZ-GEF4/PDZ-GEF6 = PDZ-GEF4/PDZ-GEF5 > PDZ-GEF3/PDZ-GEF4 > PDZ-GEFk13720/PDZ-GEF3 = PDZ-GEFk13720/PDZ-GEF4 > PDZ-GEFEP388/PDZ-GEF3 > PDZ-GEFk13720/PDZ-GEFk13720 > PDZ-GEFk13720/PDZ-GEFEP388 > PDZ-GEFEP388/PDZ-GEFEP388.

Many mutant females have three spermathecae instead of two, with different allelic combinations having different percentages of females with three spermathecae: PDZ-GEF3/PDZ-GEF3 22%, PDZ-GEF3/PDZ-GEF4 30%, PDZ-GEF4/PDZ-GEF5 59%, PDZ-GEF4/PDZ-GEF6 62%, PDZ-GEFk13720/PDZ-GEF4 % (all PDZ-GEFk13720/PDZ-GEF4, PDZ-GEFk13720/PDZ-GEF3 or PDZ-GEFEP388/PDZ-GEF3 females have two spermathecae).

The number of male germline stem cells is dramatically reduced in the testes of Gef265/Gef264 animals compared to wild-type. In these testes, the secondary spermatogonia, with branched fusomes, move to the tip.
