Imprecise excision of the insertion in rumpKG02834, resulting in a deletion starting 426bp upstream and extending 501bp downstream of the original insertion site. This deletion removes the transcription start site, the entire 5'UTR and the first 152 codons of rump.
10% of rump1 mutant embryos have less than 8 abdominal segments.
Of embryos from rump1 mothers that complete embryogenesis, 11% show abdominal segmentation defects.
Homozygous females show a variable maternal-effect defect in the percentage of progeny that complete embryonic development, ranging from 29% to 65%.
Homozygous males derived from heterozygous parents show reduced fertility; only 10% of males are able to fertilise virgin females within a 10 day period.
Embryos derived from homozygous females show a weak, though significant, segmentation defect, which is variable in its penetrance.
rump1 is an enhancer of embryonic/larval segmentation phenotype | maternal effect phenotype of lost1
lost1, rump1 has partially lethal - majority die | maternal effect | embryonic stage phenotype

rump1 mutant embryos carrying a aubQC42/+ mutation display an increase in the number of embryos that develop less than 8 abdominal segments.
rump1 mutant embryos carrying a nosBN, nos+1+3.T:MS2\MCP.BS/nosBN mutation display an increase in the number of embryos that develop less than 8 abdominal segments.
rump1 mutant embryos carrying an aubQC42/+ mutation, and the mutation nosBN, nos+1+3.T:MS2\MCP.BS/nosBN , display an increase in the number of embryos that develop less than 8 abdominal segments.
The frequency and severity of abdominal segmentation defects in embryos derived from rump1 homozygous females is increased by one copy of nosBN. Abdominal segments 4 and 5 are most frequently affected.
rump1 enhances in a dose-dependent manner the abdominal segmentation defects seen in tudtux46/+ embryos, with 44% of embryos showing segmental deletions and fusions in the absence of rump+. The 4th and 5th abdominal segments are most often affected.
The ability of nosnos.+2.Hsp83 to rescue abdominal segmentation of nosBN embryos is severely compromised in a rump1/Df(3R)by416 background; more than 90% of the embryos develop fewer than 4 abdominal segments.
