Subject: koj and cant alleles
The following information comes from correspondence with Paul Adler,
University of Virginia, 9/22/99.
kojVAI51 and cantWO21 were induced by EMS on FRT-bearing chromosomes.
The cant mutation is homozygous lethal. The koj mutation is not lethal,
but homozygotes are quite weak.
koj maps to 47E and is allelic to shavenoid. shavenoid is a very
misleading name since it implies similarity to shaven.  In actuality,
their phenotypes are completely different.  shaven results in a lack of
sensory bristles, but has no phenotype in trichomes while shavenoid has
no phenotype in bristles but results in a dramatic loss of denticles
and trichomes.
