Subject: Revised cytology of Df(2L)DS*
Revised cytology of DFs(2L)DS's. Base of 2L revised between Bridges low
and high mag maps; in addition to not noting this, Lefevre made an error
in assigning 40A1,2. I have checked my interpretation of 38-40 on Bridges
high-mag map with Sorsa and we agree as to which band is which. All of
these deficiencies \*were* induced on an isogenic b pr cn chromosome.
Df(2L)DS5 (stock via David Nash) 38C7-10;39D3-E1
	(right breakpoint agrees with Moore et al assuming map shift;
left breakpoint does not)
Df(2L)DS8 (stock via David Huen, presumably from Ashburner collection)
	38E10-F3;39B3-C4
	(both breakpoints agree with Moore et al assuming map shift)
Df(2L)DS9 (stock via David Nash) 38C7-D2;39A1-3. Fusion band probably
	contains distal 38D1.2 plus proximal 39A1-3
(right breakpoint agrees with Moore et al assuming map shift;
left breakpoint does not)
The unattributed 'pr-' for DS5 comes from Lindsley and Zimm; given that
the chromosome was already pr1 I think we can assume this was a
stock-label error of someone lost in the mists of history.
