Df(3R)BSC55 was isolated as a P transposase-induced male recombination event involving P{hsneo}hhneo56 and P{PZ}klgrN712. The deletion was isolated as a st+-ca+ recombinant chromosome from the cross st1 Sbsbd-1 es ro1 ca1 females x CyO, H{PDelta2-3}HoP2.1/+; st1 P{hsneo}hhneo56/P{PZ}klgrN712 ca1 males. Polytene chromosome squashes showed the breakpoints 94D2-10;94E1-6.
