Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Pcl1/Pcl4 males show transformation of the second leg to first leg (sex comb teeth are found on the second leg).

Heterozygotes often show weak transformation of the second and third legs to first legs, and partial transformation of the fourth abdominal segment to fifth abdominal segment.

Homozygotes almost wild type; weakly temperature-sensitive for leg transformations at 29oC. homozygous viable; leg2, leg3 transformed to leg1 (het)

Additional Comments
Genetic Interactions
Statement
Reference

The transformation of second leg to first leg seen in Pcl1/Pcl4 males is strongly suppressed by heterozygosity for Gug519, Gug1757 or Gug3333.

The frequency of transformation of the fourth abdominal tergite to fifth abdominal tergite in Pcl1/Pcl4 flies is enhanced by Df(3R)P9 and Dp(3;3)D1, and suppressed by Dp(3;3)P5 and Df(3R)Scr. The transformation of second and third legs to first legs in Pcl1/Pcl4 flies is enhanced by Dp(3;3)P5.

The order of severity of segmental transformations seen in adults is: Pcl1/Pcl3 > Pcl1/Pcl4 > Pcl3/Pcl3 > Pcl3/Pcl4 > Pcl4/Pcl4.
