10 bp deletion in the first exon of robo1-RA within the FROS sequence (Fru[BM] response oligatory sequence).
The courtship index (percentage of time a male spends in courtship) and wing extension index (percentage of time a male spends for unilateral wing extension and vibration for courtship song) in robo1Δ1/robo1Δ3 males is similar to wild type; however, during courtship robo1Δ1/robo1Δ3 males show precocious wing switching (duration the mutant continues to use the same wing is much shorter, quantified as a significantly larger wing switching index) compared to controls. robo1Δ1/+ males have a significantly larger wing switching index than wild type.
robo1Δ1/+ clones (in Scer\GAL4fru-NP0021 neurons) in males have a significant increase in mAL neurons without an ipsilateral neurite compared to control clones; there is no effect in females.
robo1Δ1/robo1[+] is rescued by Scer\GAL4GMR43D01/robo1GD2608
Expression of robo1GD2608 driven by Scer\GAL4GMR43D01 rescues precocious wing switching during courtship in robo1Δ1/+ males.
