Expression of robo1ΔIg1.T:Ivir\HA1 in the wild-type background has no discernible effect on the structure and morphology of the embryonic ventral nerve cord, not even when two copies of the transgene are present.
Expression of robo1ΔIg1.T:Ivir\HA1 in embryos does not produce any obvious phenotypes in the ventral nerve cord.
Co-expression of commScer\UAS.cUa (under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu) and robo1ΔIg1.T:Ivir\HA1 in embryos results in an increase in axon midline crossing and corresponding thickening of commissures in the ventral nerve cord.
robo1ΔIg1.Tag:HA fails to rescue robo11
robo1ΔIg1.Tag:HA fails to rescue robo11
Expression of robo1ΔIg1.T:Ivir\HA1 in robo11 mutant background fails to rescue the defects in midline axon repulsion and ectopic midline crossings observed in the ventral nerve cord of robo11 embryos.
Expression of two copies of robo1ΔIg1.T:Ivir\HA1 does not rescue the ventral nerve cord defects, FasII-expressing axon guidance defects or pCC guidance defects of robo11/robo11 mutant embryos.
