The heat-shock-induced expression of pcmhs.PG does not result in ectopic sex comb teeth in males, as compared to controls.
mbf12, pcm[+]/pcmhs.PG has sex comb tooth | ectopic phenotype
The heat-shock-induced expression of pcmhs.PG in mbf12 heterozygotes leads to a low penetrance ectopic sex comb teeth phenotype, as compared to controls.
The ectopic sex comb teeth phenotype of Psc1 heterozygous males is partially suppressed by homozygosity for either pcmΔ1 or pcm5 and is exacerbated by the heat-shock-induced expression of pcmhs.PG; the phenotype suppression by either pcmΔ1 or pcm5 homozygosity is annulled by the heat-shock-induced expression of pcmhs.PG. The ectopic sex comb teeth phenotype of Psc1 heterozygous males is also exacerbated by the triple combinations of heterozygosity for mbf12, homozygosity for either pcmΔ1 or pcm5 and heat-shock-induced expression of pcmhs.PG.
Similarly, the ectopic sex comb teeth phenotype of Pc6 heterozygous males is partially suppressed by homozygosity for pcmΔ1; this phenotype suppression is annulled either by the heat-shock-induced expression of pcmhs.PG. The ectopic sex comb teeth phenotype of Pc6 heterozygous males is also exacerbated by the triple combination of mbf12 heterozygosity, pcmΔ1 homozygosity and heat-shock-induced expression of pcmhs.PG.
