amorphic allele - molecular evidence
FLP/FRT-mediated recombination resulting in deletion of the entire trpm gene whilst leaving adjacent genes, αPS4 and CG8102, intact.
Scer\FRT-mediated recombination between the two progenitor insertions has resulted in the deletion of the genomic sequence between them.
lethal - all die before end of prepupal stage | recessive
some die during prepupal stage | recessive
Homozygotes die at the end of the larval stage, at the point of white prepupae formation.
FlyBase Curator comment: Progenitor insertions are not given in Figure S3, but an email to FlyBase from author Georgiev stated: "Allele trpm21 has been generated using FRT/FLP mediated recombination between piggyBac insertions f04840 and f03209".
