lethal (with Df(2L)BSC30), with SfmbtαTub84B.Tag:TAP
Sfmbt1 homozygotes and Sfmbt1/Df(2L)BSC30 transheterozygote usually die as wandering third instar larvae. However, a small fraction of these larvae develop into highly abnormal prepupae that fail to develop further. At 120 hours AEL, both Sfmbt1 and Sfmbt1/Df(2L)BSC30 larvae have very small imaginal discs, although their body length is not different to wild-type larvae. Many of these animals continue to grow as wandering larvae, and their discs eventually develop into amorphous tumor-like tissue.
Ovaries from females with Sfmbt1 mutant germ cells show an arrest during oogenesis.

Sfmbt1 is not rescued by SfmbtαTub84B.Tag:TAP
Df(2L)BSC30/Sfmbt1 is not rescued by SfmbtαTub84B.Tag:TAP
Expression of SfmbtαTub84.T:Zzzz\TAP fails to rescue Sfmbt1 homozygotes or Sfmbt1/Df(2L)BSC30 transheterozygotes into viable adult flies.
