Imprecise excision of P{SUPor-P}peloKG06646 results in a 558bp insertion in the 5' UTR of pelo.
The testes of peloPA13 homozygotes show a significant and progressive decrease in germline stem cells, as well as meiosis defects, with abnormally large spermatids containing 4N or 2N chromosomal content, and large nebenkern, as compared to controls; heterozygotes show no changes in germline stem cell number, as compared to controls.
peloPA13 females have much smaller ovaries at both 25 and 29[o]C compared to heterozygous controls.
peloPA13 has decreased cell number | spermatogenesis | recessive | progressive phenotype, non-enhanceable by HBS11/HBS1[+]
peloPA13 has male germline stem cell | progressive phenotype, non-enhanceable by HBS11/HBS1[+]
