Homozygotes show no defects in trichome polarity.
dboΔ25.1, kelDE1 has abnormal planar polarity phenotype
dboΔ25.1, kelDE1 has ommatidium phenotype
dboΔ25.1, kelDE1 has wing hair phenotype
kelDE1 dboΔ25.1 double mutant wings show trichome swirls only below vein 4. Approximately 1% of ommatidia in the eye are mispolarised.
