Expression of pontScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4arm.PS does not alter wing morphology in adults.
pontUAS.cDa/Scer\GAL4arm.PS is a suppressor of visible | dominant phenotype of brm2, pont[+]/pont5.1
pontUAS.cDa/Scer\GAL4arm.PS is a suppressor of wing phenotype of brm2, pont[+]/pont5.1
The low-penetrance "held-out" wing phenotype of brm2/+ adults is enhanced in a pont5.1/+ background. Held-out wings are observed in 15% of double-heterozygous animals compared to 1.4% in brm2/+ mutants. Co-expression of pontScer\UAS.cDa under the control of Scer\GAL4arm.PS in brm2/pont5.1 animals reduces the penetrance of the wing phenotype to 1.7%.
