Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Replication of mtDNA is severely impaired in larpmtr-null mutant ovaries.

Homozygotes have shorter and thinner bristles than normal and some bristles are occasionally missing. The mutant flies also have a slight rough eye phenotype.

71% of larpS003108/larpmtr-null females are sterile.

45% of larpS022529/larpmtr-null females are sterile.

6% of larp06487/larpmtr-null females are sterile.

Homozygous females do not lay eggs.

Eggs laid by larpS003108/larpmtr-null females show a number of defects during syncytial divisions, including chains of linked spindles, free centrosomes, multipolar spindles, chromosome segregation defects and a loss of synchrony throughout the syncytial divisions.

Eggs laid by larpS022529/larpmtr-null females show a number of defects during syncytial divisions, including chains of linked spindles and free centrosomes. Time-lapse imaging shows that centrosomes can be seen to successfully duplicate following the previous division cycle, however the movement of the centrosomes around the nuclear membrane is hindered. Nonetheless, a spindle forms between the two groups of centrosomes. Nuclear spacing is also disrupted.

48.4% of homozygous spermatocytes show defects in meiosis.

23% of pAbpEP310/+ ; larpmtr-null/+ double heterozygous spermatocytes show defects in meiosis.

The frequency of homozygous pAbpEP310 spermatocytes that show defects in meiosis (17%) is increased by larpmtr-null/+ (to 31.4%).
