    Homozygous larvae develop more slowly than wild type and after an extended third larval instar they die after pupariation, prior to the differentiation of adult structures.

    The salivary glands of feeding third instar Cks85Aex15/Df(3R)BSC197 larvae are significantly smaller and have less nuclei undergoing DNA replication than those of controls. The ploidy of salivary gland cell nuclei is reduced in homozygous wandering third instar larvae compared to wild type.

    The brains of homozygous third instar larvae are smaller than those of controls and some of the cells appear larger than normal. Approximately 6% of the cells are tetraploid and less than 1% have a higher ploidy.

    Differentiated cells posterior to the morphogenetic furrow appear normal in homozygous eye discs but cells anterior the furrow have larger nuclei than normal which appear polyploid. This phenotype is more severe at higher temperature.

    Flow cytometry indicates that wing discs from newly wandering homozygous third instar larvae contain a population of tetraploid (8n) cells. This population is more prominent at higher temperatures. A small but reproducible peak corresponding to 16n cells appears at 29[o]C. Extensive apoptosis is seen in the homozygous wing discs.

    Expression of Cks85AGD13737 under the control of Scer\GAL4en-e16E in a Cks85Aex15/+ background at 29[o]C leads to increased spacing of the wing hairs near the anterior/posterior compartment boundary.

    Heterozygous flies derived from homozygous female germline clones are viable and appear phenotypically normal. Homozygous animals derived from homozygous female germline clones survive to the larval/pupal transition and show the same degree of polyploidy as maternally rescued larvae raised in parallel.

    Cks85Aex15 mutants grow more slowly than wild-type and are lethal at the third instar/pupal transition. This lethality can be rescued through ectopic expression of Cks85AScer\UAS.T:Zzzz\FLAG, under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32. Cks85Aex15 mutants do not exhibit any obvious mitotic defects in zygotic tissues. Germline clone analysis of Cks85Aex15 reveals that Cks85A is not required maternally.

    The polyploidy seen in the eye discs of homozygous Cks85Aex15 wandering third instar larvae anterior to the morphogenetic furrow is suppressed in Cks85Aex15 Cks30AKO double homozygotes, but is not suppressed by expression of Cks30AScer\UAS.T:Zzzz\FLAG under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32.

    The polyploidy seen in the eye discs of homozygous Cks85Aex15 wandering third instar larvae anterior to the morphogenetic furrow is enhanced by Skp2ex9/+.

    Cks85Aex15, Skp2ex9 double homozygotes display the same lethal phase and same degree of polyploidy in cells anterior to the morphogenetic furrow in the eye disc as Skp2ex9 single mutants.

    Expression of Skp2Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32 partially rescues the lethality of Cks85Aex15 homozygotes: the animals progress to the pharate adult stage and die during or shortly after escaping from the pupal case.

    Expression of Skp2Scer\UAS.P\T.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32 rescues the polyploidy seen anterior to the morphogenetic furrow in the eye discs of homozygous Cks85Aex15 wandering third instar larvae at 29[o]C.

    Expression of BacA\p35Scer\UAS.cHa under the control of Scer\GAL4en-e16E in the posterior compartment suppresses the apoptosis seen in Cks85Aex15 third larval instar wing discs.

    Expression of Cks85AScer\UAS.T:Zzzz\FLAG under the control of Scer\GAL4da.G32 rescues the polyploidy seen in nuclei anterior to the morphogenetic furrow in the eye discs of Cks85Aex15 homozygous larvae.
