Subject: FB-NG Help Mail: Gene data (problem or question)
comments: Dear Flybase,
I think l(3)07086 is allelic to rtet. The evidence is that the l(3)07086 P
line fails to complement to EP(3)3734, an allele of rtet.

Hi Gillian,
Yes, I came across l(3)07086 first, from a screen for mutants
exhibiting abnormal pattern of HRP-Boss (bride of sevenless)
staining. In FLP-generated l(3)07086 mutant clones, HRP-Boss
staining is absent. The same phenotype is also observed in EP(3)3734
mutant clones. The final data is that they fail to complement by
lethality.
So in short, they fail to complement by lethality and they both have
identical clonal phenotype in HRP-Boss staining.
