The Ab(2;3)Tell rearrangement was induced on a chromosome carrying P{Winkelried}D and juxtaposes the P{Winkelried}D insertion and pericentromeric heterochromatin. FlyBase curator comment: the Ab(2;3)Tell-P{Winkelried}D genotype variant represents the genotype that carries both the Ab(2;3)Tell rearrangement and the P{Winkelried}D insertion. The Ab(2;3)Tell-P{Winkelried}D variant shows position effect variegation for the w gene present in the P{Winkelried}D insertion.
