Df(3L)BSC23 was isolated as a P transposase-induced male recombination event involving P{lacW}dosP115 and P{lacW}Hsp83j5C2. The deletion was isolated as a rhove-1-e1 recombinant chromosome from the cross rhove-1 pp e1 females x CyO, H{PDelta2-3}HoP2.1/+; rhove-1 P{lacW}dosP115/P{lacW}Hsp83j5C2 e1 males. Polytene chromosome squashes showed the breakpoints 62E8;63B5-6. Df(3L)BSC23 failed to complement aly1 and l(3)63Bg1.
