    Title
    A set of EMS-induced recessive lethal alleles on the X chromosome.
    Accessions
      Overview
      Description

      Collection of stocks each carrying a recessive lethal X chromosome mutation. Generated by chemical mutagenesis using low concentrations of ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS), to minimize the number of lethal hits per chromosome.

      Methods
      Protocol

      Isogenised y1 w[*] P{neoFRT}19A males were fed a sucrose solution containing a low concentration of EMS and balanced stocks carrying lethal mutations on the X chromosome were established.

      Mode of Assay
      Data analysis

      Complementation tests, duplication mapping and Pacman mapping were performed, and mutations in selected cases were determined by PCR and Sanger sequencing and/or whole genome sequencing.
