This deletion removes a single ribosomal protein-coding gene (though other genes are also removed).
Flies heterozygous for the deletion do not show a Minute bristle phenotype.
The Df(2L)esc-P3-0 chromosome does not act as a dominant suppressor of telomeric silencing (assayed using the effect of the chromosome on the eye colour phenotype of flies carrying "P{wvar}KR3-2", a stable "brown-red" variant of the P{3'WP-2,wvar}2Lt insertion).
Homozygous embryos do not complete head involution and tracheae and salivary glands are variable in size.
Heterozygosity for this deletion has no effect on the mutant ovarian phenotype of ovoD2.
