Df(2L)BSC51 was isolated as a P transposase-induced male recombination event involving P{GT1}CG15636BG01429 and P{GT1}BG01694. The deletion was isolated as a net1-cn1 recombinant chromosome from the cross net1 b1 cn1 sp1 females x net1 P{GT1}CG15636BG01429/P{GT1}BG01694 cn1; TMS, P{Delta2-3}99B/+ males. Polytene chromosome squashes showed the breakpoints 25A2-3;25C2-5. Df(2L)BSC51 failed to complement vkg01209, eIF-3p40k09003 and betaggt-IS-2554.
