Expression of TrpA1Scer\FRT.stop.Scer\UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4Dh44-R1.PL and in combination with Scer\FLP1dsx in females does not result in any change in latency to sperm ejection after copulation at 23[o]C, but at 30[o]C results in a significant increase in latency to sperm ejection as compared to controls.
Scer\FLP1dsx homozygotes are fertile and show normal morphology.
