Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Rcd42 primary spermatocytes exhibit centriole loss.

Rcd42 femoral chordotonal organs are highly disorganized: ciliary rootlets are rarely observed in ordered pairs, are missing in many of the scolopidia, or do not form junctions with basal bodies; basal bodies are defective or absent; centrobin-positive basal bodies are absent; and the actin bundles are disorganized.

Rcd42 Johnston's organ lack any ciliated scolopidium.

Reference

Embryos derived from Rcd42 (in combination with Rcd4UASp.EGFP under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 to rescue coordination) mothers exhibit extensive disorganization of the mitotic apparatus from very early stages of development.

Expression of Rcd4UASp.EGFP under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 suppresses lethality and incoordination phenotypes while it fails to suppress female sterility phenotype of Rcd42 homozygotes.
