Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

exuVL/exu4 embryos lack anterior head structures.

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.

Statement
Reference

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.

Complementation and Rescue Data
Partially rescued by

exu4 is partially rescued by exuHN

Comments

A single P{exuHH} insertion rescues both male and female sterility. exuHN rescues female but not male sterility.
