Imprecise excision of P{EPgy2}OstγEY16757 results in a deletion from -91 to +1056.
Inferred boundaries of a deletion resulting from the imprecise excision of P{EPgy2}OstgammaEY16757 that extends from -91 to +1056 relative to the ATG.
Half of embryos derived from OstγΔ239 germline clones and OstγΔ239 heterozygous fathers die and show abnormal cuticle denticle belts, many of which display signs of segment polarity defects.
Mosaic individuals bearing OstγΔ239 mitotic clones (in an otherwise heterozygous background) exhibit prevalent wing defects, including stout bristles in wing blade, notched wings and missing/broke/ectopic wing veins.
