obst-AΔ1/obst-AΔ1 mutants display larval lethality; larvae have a shortened body length as compared to heterozygote siblings or wild type; the dorsal trunk of late embryos shows a small but significant reduction in airway diameter, and some tortuosity, but no change in length; mutants show no difference in larval body width, and no obvious defects in patterning, dorsal closure or head involution, trachea do not display any obvious defects in epithelial integrity, no defect in tracheal gas-filling at the end of embryogenesis, as compared to wild type.
obst-AΔ1 has decreased body size | larval stage phenotype, enhanceable by Gaspd02290/Gaspd02290
obst-AΔ1/obst-AΔ1 is an enhancer of decreased body size | larval stage phenotype of Gaspd02290
obst-AΔ1 has embryonic/larval tracheal dorsal trunk | embryonic stage phenotype, enhanceable by Gaspd02290/Gaspd02290
Gaspd02290, obst-AΔ1 has embryonic/first instar larval cuticle | first instar larval stage phenotype
Gaspd02290, obst-AΔ1 has embryonic/larval tracheal section | embryonic stage phenotype
Gaspd02290, obst-AΔ1 has taenidial fold | embryonic stage phenotype
obst-AΔ1/obst-AΔ1, Gaspd02290/Gaspd02290 double mutant larvae are shorter than either single mutant; the cuticles of first instar larvae appear severely bloated; the dorsal trunk of late embryos shows further reduction in airway diameter as compared with single mutants, but no change in length, and shows some tube tortuosity; trachea fail to become gas-filled at the end of embryogenesis and display some areas of local tube collapse and grossly irregular taenidial folds, but trachea do not display any obvious defects in epithelial integrity; larvae do not display any obvious defects in patterning, dorsal closure or head involution, as compared to wild type.
obst-AΔ1 is rescued by obst-AUAS.cTa
Expression of obst-AScer\UAS.cTa under the control of Scer\GAL469B rescues the lethality of obst-AΔ1/obst-AΔ1 mutants.
