Description

Insertion lines from this collection were assessed for inclusion in the Gene Disruption Project collection.

(Bellen et al., 2004)

A set of mutant stocks derived by insertional mutagenesis using the P-element construct P{PZ}; most lines have a lethal or sterile phenotype. The P{PZ} construct carries a ry[+] visible marker, Ecol\lacZ enhancer trap sequences, and bacterial sequences that allow plasmid rescue.
