A 1.97kb genomic fragment spanning the HtrA2 locus.
Extent of rescue fragment determined from primer sequences.
HtrA2+t1.97 partially rescues HtrA2IFD/Df(3R)HtrA2Df1
Expression of two copies of HtrA2+t1.97 partially rescues the spermatogonial cyst death seen in HtrA2IFD/Df(3R)HtrA2Df1 mutant flies. The amount of germline cell death is restored to approximately 80% of wild type levels. The defect in male sterility is also partially rescued.
