Df(2L)BSC16 was isolated as a P transposase-induced male recombination event involving P{lacW}exk12913 and P{PZ}ds05142. The deletion was isolated as a net1-cn1 recombinant from the cross net1 b1 cn1 sp1 females x net1 P{lacW}exk12913/P{PZ}ds05142 cn1; TMS, delta2-3 males. Polytene chromosome squashes showed the breakpoints 21C3-4;21C6-8. Df(2L)BSC16 failed to complement ush2, Gsc05341 and Df(2L)ast2.
