exk12913 homozygous mutant clones generated in the male germline develop normally. 16 cells are observed per cyst, and cell size and morphology are indistinguishable from neighbouring control cells. However, non-autonomous germline over-proliferation is observed in non-mutant spermatogonial cysts.
Separable from: rempAk12913.
The "l(2)k12913" chromosome contains an insertion in the ex gene (P{lacW}exk12913) and also contains a separate lesion (a deletion) in the rempA gene. The chromosome is recessive lethal and fails to complement rempA1. However, the ex1 allele complements the viability and behaviour defects of both the "l(2)k12913" chromosome and rempA1. This indicates that the lesion in the rempA gene and not the insertion in ex is responsible for the lethality and behavioural defects of the chromosome.
