Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Madm3T4/Madm3T4 mutant intestinal stem cell clones have significantly fewer cells and a smaller size than control clones.

Madm3T4 mutants exhibit a small head (pinhead) phenotype.

Development of Madm3T4 mutant larvae ceases mostly in the third larval instar and in the pre-pupal stage. The onset of the pre-pupal stage is delayed by 2 to 10 days. A few adults are produced (less than 1% of the expected Mendelian ratio).

The body size of the rare Madm3T4 mutant flies that survive to adulthood is reduced compared to controls, with females being almost 40% lighter than controls. Madm3T4 escapers also display malformations such as eye and wing defects, including rotation defects, missing and extra photoreceptors, fused ommatidia, and cell-fate transformations. Similar patterning defects are observed in Madm3T4 mutant eye clones. The wing phenotypes range from no defects to wing notches and an incomplete wing vein V.

Based on the severity of the pinhead phenotype, when the mutant is over Df(3R)Exel7283, the following Madm alleles can be ranked from the most severe to the weakest: Madm2D2 = Madm2U3 = Madm3G5 > Madm3Y2 = Madm4S3 = Madm7L2 > Madm3T4.
