UASt regulatory sequences drive expression of an inverted repeat.
Expression of Ir87aKK106593 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PU (in combination with a Dicer-2 transgene to enhance RNAi efficiency) does not lead to a significant change in female feeding preference index for 1% yeast extract versus 5mM sucrose solution, as compared to controls.
Expression of Ir87aKK106593 under the control of Scer\GAL4Abd-B.D1 has no apparent effect on the morphology of the secondary cells in male accessory glands.
