Df(2L)BSC32 was isolated as a P transposase-induced male recombination event involving P{PZ}dbf1 and P{lacW}l(2)k05812k05812. The deletion was isolated as a dp+-cn+ recombinant chromosome from the cross dpov1 cn1 bw1 females x P{PZ}dbf1 cn1/dpov1 P{lacW}l(2)k05812k05812; TMS, P{Delta2-3}99B males. The miniwhite marker from P{lacW}l(2)k05812k05812 was retained. Polytene chromosome squashes showed the breakpoints 32A1-2;32C5-D1. Df(2L)BSC32 failed to complement UbcD2k13206 and l(2)k03107k03107.
