Subject: Re: FlyBase Query : stbm7-6
I hope you didn't spend too much time looking for a reference for the
stbm7-6 allele, as it is not mentioned in any publication. The
allele was created with X-rays. It has been so long that I don't remember
if this allele was generated in my original FLP/FRT screen (the same
screen that created stbm153, in which case it has an FRT on it), or
in my later, non-complementation screen, in which case it has cn on
it. PLease let me know if you need this additional information and I
will forage through my old notebooks to see what I can turn up.
Regards,
Tanya
