amorphic allele - molecular evidence
The mir-318 hairpin has been deleted and replaced by a loxP cassette containing the w+mW.hs marker.
female semi-sterile (with Df(3R)BSC479)
male fertile

partially lethal | recessive
germline cell | embryonic stage | maternal effect (with Df(3R)BSC479)
Embryos derived from mir-318KO/Df(3R)BSC479 embryos show a significant decrease in the number of primordial germ cells compared to embryos from control females.
