Detailed Description

Reference

None of the eggs laid by armi72.1/Df(3L)armi-J mutant mothers have the normal number of dorsal appendages.

Newly eclosed armi1/armi72.1 transheterozygous females do not show any obvious changes in the number of germ line stem cells in the germarium, as compared to controls.

Eggs laid by armi1/armi72.1 females have dorsal appendage defects; 11.7% have fused dorsal appendages, 88.1% lack dorsal appendages and 0.2% have wild-type dorsal appendages.

Only 2% of eggs derived from armi1/armi72.1 females have two wild-type dorsal appendages, compared with 11% if the females are fed caffeine.

armi72.1/armi1 eggs show fused appendages in 67.6% of cases, no appendages in 28.9% of cases and the wild-type number of appendages in 3.5% of cases.

In armi72.1/armi1 oocytes, both the anterior and later posterior microtubule-organizing centers are much less prominent than in wild-type oocytes.

armi72.1 and armi72.1/Df(3L)E1 flies have a deficient long-term olfactory memory but show no defects in short-term olfactory memory.

92% of eggs laid by armi72.1 females completely lack dorsal appendages (indicating strong dorsal/ventral patterning defects) and 35% of these are also collapsed. The anterior microtubule organising center (MTOC) forms in stage 1 armi72.1 oocytes. However, during stages 2-7 a posterior MTOC is not apparent in the mutant oocyte and microtubule levels in the oocyte and nurse cells are comparable, in contrast to wild-type egg chambers where the oocyte is enriched in microtubules compared to the nurse cells during these stages. Cortical microtubules persist at the posterior cortex of mid-oogenesis stage mutant oocytes, in contrast to wild type.

45% of progeny derived from homozygous males mated to wild-type females hatch. 92% of eggs derived from armi72.1 females lack dorsal appendages.

Statement
Reference

The mortality of Gas41f05565 homozygotes as well as the necrotic patches (on scutum, notum and scutellum) observed in the surviving adults is further enhanced by combination with armi72.1.

lokp6 partially suppresses the dorsal appendage defects seen in eggs produced by armi72.1/Df(3L)armi-J mutant mothers. The number of eggs produced is also significantly increased.

The dorsal appendage defects seen in eggs laid by armi1/armi72.1 females are partly suppressed if the females are also homozygous for lokp6; 16.1% of the eggs have fused dorsal appendages, 7.3% lack dorsal appendages and 76.6% have wild-type dorsal appendages.

56% of eggs derived from mei-41D3/mei-41D3 ; armi1/armi72.1 double mutant females have normal dorsal appendages, but the fraction of embryos with normal dorsal appendages increases to 83% if the females are fed caffeine.

The fused dorsal appendage phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 eggs is suppressed in lokp6; armi72.1/armi1 eggs with 92% of double mutants showing wild-type appendage morphology.

The mei-41D3 mutation partially suppresses the fused dorsal appendage phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 eggs; 56% of mei-41D3; armi72.1/armi1 eggs show wild-type appendage morphology.

The fused dorsal appendage phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 eggs is not suppressed in mei-W681/mei-W68k05603; armi72.1/armi1 eggs.

The microtubule-organizing center phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 oocytes is suppressed by the lokp6 mutation.

The microtubule-organizing center phenotype of armi72.1/armi1 oocytes is partially suppressed by the mei-41D3 mutation.

armi72.1 osk1 double mutant ovaries have microtubule defects that are cytologically identical to the armi single mutant phenotype.
