Df(2R)BSC40 was isolated as a P transposase-induced male recombination
event involving P{GT1}Rep1BG01033 and P{PZ}Cct506444. The deletion was
isolated as a cn+-bw+ recombinant chromosome from the cross cn1 bw1
females x cn1 P{PZ}Cct506444/ P{GT1}Rep1BG01033 bw1 sp1; TMS,
Sb1 P{ry+t7.2=Delta2-3}99B/+ males. Polytene chromosome squashes showed
the breakpoints 48E1-2;48E2-10. Df(2R)BSC40 failed to complement
SmD3k09029 and jebk05644.
