Subject: dor allels Hi, Rachel. Please, find enclosed the table of dor allels I made using the FlyBase information. I would like to inform you, that: dor8 = l(1)7 is the late larvae lethal as in this case dor9 and dor10 have to be. dor29 is late larvae lethal too. There is one allele dor lt148 I can't find in your data base. It is mentioned at least in Belyaeva E.S. et al. 1982. DIS 58:184-190 and Demakova O.V. et al. 1988. DIS 67: 21-27. Cheers, Yuri. Subject: Re: dor allels Hi Yuri, I am just dealing with your message. Just to be sure: >dor8 = l(1)7 is the late larvae lethal as in this case dor9 and dor10 have to be. are you saying that dor8, dor8 and dor8 are all late larval lethals? >There is one allele dor lt148 I can't find in your data base. We have this allele as 'dort148' with a synonym of 'dorlt148' but I see (now that we have been back to the old papers) that dorlt148 was used as a symbol before dort148 so I will edit the files so that dorlt148 becomes valid and dort148 secondary. Unfortunately you won't see these changes on the public server for a few weeks but they will be made in the master files after I get your reply. Thanks! Rachel. Subject: Re: dor allels Hi Rachel, >are you saying that dor8, dor8 and dor8 are all late larval lethals? Yes, ofcaurse, all of them are late larvae lethals :). In fact, I'd never seen dor9 and dor10, but according to FlyBase description they have to be like dor8, so late larvae lethals. Also Elena Belyaeva wrote me recently that there are no adult lethal dor mutations known. Cheers, Yuri.
