The following information accompanied stocks donated to the Bloomington Stock Center by Greg Beitel, Northwestern University (2/07).
The P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP} construct described in Le et al., 2006, Genetics 174: 2255-2257 was inserted into four balancer chromosomes.
The P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP}1 insertion is carried by a FM7a chromosome.
The P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP}2 insertion is carried by a CyO chromosome.
The P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP}3 insertion is carried by a TM3, Sb1 chromosome.
The P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP}4 insertion is carried on the TM6B, Sb1 Tb1 ca1 balancer variant of Kennison (FBba0000282).
Bloomington will use the following balancer short names for these balancer variants:
FM7a, P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP}1
CyO, P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP}2
TM3, P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP}3, Sb1
TM6B, P{Dfd-GMR-nvYFP}4, Sb1 Tb1 ca1
