male sterile (with bamΔ86)
Mutant testes are filled with early stage germ cells.
bamΔ86/bamBG has male sterile phenotype, suppressible by Dsim\bambam.Venus
bam[+]/bamBG is a suppressor of ovary phenotype of nanos18/Df(3R)nanos
bam[+]/bamBG is a suppressor of germline stem cell phenotype of nanos18/Df(3R)nanos
bam[+]/bamBG is a suppressor of ovary phenotype of nanos53/Df(3R)nanos
bam[+]/bamBG is a suppressor of germline stem cell phenotype of nanos53/Df(3R)nanos
Expression of Dsim\bambam.T:Avic\GFP-YFP.Venus restores fertility of the otherwise sterile bamBG/bamΔ86 males (even under sperm exhaustion conditions).
bamΔ86/bamBG is partially rescued by bam4.1.Venus
