P{S200-exu} can rescue the maternal effect lethality.
Eggs derived from homozygous females cellularise normally but become abnormal at gastrulation; the cephalic furrow is shifted forward and the anterior most cells form an inverted posterior end, forming a posterior midgut, proctodeal region and often Malpighian tubules. Anterior head structures of the cuticle are missing.
exu4 has lethal | recessive | maternal effect phenotype, suppressible by exu::Dpse\exu1594
exuVL/exu4 is a suppressor of visible | homeotic phenotype of miraΔ103.αTub67C.mGFP6
exuVL/exu4 is a suppressor of embryonic abdomen | ectopic phenotype of miraΔ103.αTub67C.mGFP6
exuVL/exu4 is a suppressor of embryonic thorax phenotype of miraΔ103.αTub67C.mGFP6
exuVL/exu4, miraΔ103.αTub67C.mGFP6 has embryonic head phenotype
Females that express miraΔ103.αTub67C.T:Avic\GFP-m6 in a exuVL/exu4 background produce embryos with an exu phenotype, in which the thorax and abdomen develop normally, but the head is absent.
