Expression of maternally deposited AxnΔDIX.αTub84B.T:Zzzz\FLAG reduces the hatch rate of embryos to 6-10% of controls. Examination of the larval cuticles reveal no significant effect.
The hatch rate of embryos expressing zygotic AxnΔDIX.αTub84B.T:Zzzz\FLAG is not significantly affected. The majority of embryos complete embryonic development. However, the majority of the animals die before reaching adulthood.
AxnS044230 mutant (maternal-/zygotic-) embryos expressing maternally provided AxnΔDIX.αTub84B.T:Zzzz\FLAG exhibit deletions of smooth cuticle bands and the appearance of ectopic denticles.
