14kb deletion that spans the mus308 gene and its promoter region.
mus308null mutants display increased frequency of egg shell defects and the eggs laid by mus308null mutants have a very low hatching frequency compared to wild-type controls.
Cell cycle progression and developmental onset of gene amplification occur normally in mus308null mutant follicle cells and their development is also not perturbed.
PolQnull has majority die during embryonic stage phenotype, enhanceable by DNAlig4169/DNAlig4169
PolQnull has egg phenotype, enhanceable by DNAlig4169/DNAlig4169
The high frequency of eggshell defects characteristic for mus308null mutants is increased further by combination with Lig4169 and the mus308null;Lig4169 double mutants fail to hatch.
