Df(3R)BSC48 was isolated as a P transposase-induced male recombination
event involving P{EP}EP3281 and P{PZ}l(3)0468404684. The deletion was
isolated as a st1-ca1 recombinant chromosome from the cross st1
Sbsbd-1 es ro1 ca1 females x CyO, H{PDelta2-3}HoP2.1/+; st1
P{EP}EP3281/P{PZ}l(3)0468404684 ca1males. Polytene chromosome squashes
showed the breakpoints 95A5-8;95B2-6. Df(3R)BSC48 failed to complement
HmgcrC14.5.
