In Df(3R)P709/Df(3R)boss15 flies, extra scutellar and dorso-central bristles are often seen. In some cases microchaetae are more densely spaced as well.
Homozygous embryos exhibit a weak neurogenic phenotype: holes of variable size in the ventral trunk and/or the dorsal cephalic region, head and ventral defects. Indivduals may also display thin denticles and problems with dorsal closure.
