Expression of LrtScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP under the control of Scer\GAL4sr-md710 results in an abnormal muscle phenotype in 70% of embryos; the dorsal longitudinal muscles stall close to a single segmental border and do not extend between two segmental borders in two to four segments. In 20% of these embryos, similar defects are also seen in the ventral longitudinal muscles.
Expression of LrtScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR does not result in a mutant muscle phenotype.
LrtUAS.EGFP, Scer\GAL4sr-md710 has larval somatic muscle cell phenotype, suppressible by robo[+]/robo11
robo1/+ completely rescues the abnormal muscle phenotype caused by expression of LrtScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP under the control of Scer\GAL4sr-md710.
Expression of LrtScer\UAS.T:Avic\GFP-EGFP under the control of Scer\GAL4sr-md710 rescues the muscle defects seen in Df(2R)BSC403 homozygous embryos.
