In Rodrigues et al. 1995 (EMBO J. 14(13):3007-3020), the Mvl97f allele
was said to be induced by mobilization of P elements from 'C(1)RM(w+)8'.
This corresponds the the attached-X chromosome in Bloomington stocks
16	C(1)RM, y1 P{w+mC=lacW}5-45fD w* P{lacW}4-5fP P{lacW}3-52d
P{lacW}3-76a/0/C(1;Y)13, v1 f1
3697	C(1)RM, y1 P{w+mC=lacW}5-45fD w* P{lacW}4-5fP P{lacW}3-52d
P{lacW}3-76a/+
3711	C(1)RM, y1 P{w+mC=lacW}5-45fD w* P{lacW}4-5fP P{lacW}3-52d
P{lacW}3-76a/w1118/Y
Champakali Ayyub confirmed in correspondence (May 18, 1999) that the
Mvl97f allele is an insertion of P{w+mC=lacW}.
