Imprecise excision of the progenitor insertion, resulting in a deletion that removes the first two exons of Cip4, including the start codon.
Cip4Δ32 maternal and zygotic homozygous adults exhibit disrupted longitudinal and circular muscle patterns in midgut (shorter and not arranged strictly in parallel longitudinal muscle fibers with numerous branches -particularly near their ends) compared to controls.
Mutants frequently show wing hair duplications.
12.6% of Cip4Δ32 ovaries have defective egg chambers containing an aberrant number of germline cells.
Homozygous and Cip4Δ32/Df(3L)Exel8098 adults show wing hair duplications in about 30% of the wing cells. The orientation of the wing hairs is not affected.

Df(3L)Exel8098/Cip4Δ32 has visible phenotype, non-enhanceable by WASp[+]/WASp3
Df(3L)Exel8098/Cip4Δ32 has visible phenotype, non-suppressible by WASp[+]/WASp3

Cip4Δ32, Nostdf004 has female sterile phenotype
Cip4Δ32, Nostdf004 has male semi-sterile phenotype
Cip4Δ32 has adult midgut longitudinal muscle cell phenotype, enhanceable by Nostdf004/Nostdf004

Cip4Δ32, Nostdf004, SyndΔEx22 has embryonic/larval midgut | embryonic stage phenotype
Cip4Δ32, Nostdf004, SyndΔEx22 has embryonic somatic muscle cell phenotype
Cip4Δ32, Nostdf004, SyndΔEx22 has muscle cell of dorsal acute muscle 1 | embryonic stage phenotype
Cip4Δ32, Nostdf004 has embryonic somatic muscle cell phenotype
Cip4Δ32, Nostdf004 has muscle cell of dorsal acute muscle 1 | embryonic stage phenotype
Cip4Δ32, SyndΔEx22 has embryonic/larval midgut | embryonic stage phenotype
Cip4Δ32 Nostdf004 maternal and zygotic homozygous double mutant embryos exhibit somatic muscle defects (missing or small muscle fibers in several segments replaced with mononucleated myoblasts at the corresponding positions) and significantly decreased number of nuclei in muscle DA1 when compared to controls.
Nostdf004 maternal and zygotic Cip4Δ32 zygotic SyndΔEx22 zygotic triple homozygous mutant embryos exhibit somatic muscle defects (missing muscle fibers with unfused myoblasts), significantly decreased number of nuclei in muscle DA1 and slightly expanded midgut anterior chamber when compared to controls.
Cip4Δ32 SyndΔEx22 zygotic homozygous double mutant embryos exhibit slightly expanded midgut anterior chamber compared to controls.
44.8% of Cip4Δ32 NostΔ ovaries have defective egg chambers containing an aberrant number of germline cells - they always have two or more oocytes, each oocyte has four ring canals, and oocytes are randomly positioned, indicating a defect in the encapsulation of single germline cysts by follicle cells. Defective egg chambers past stage 9 are not observed. Germarium morphology is clearly affected.
SCARΔ37/+ increases the fraction of wing cells that have multiple wing hairs in Cip4Δ32/Df(3L)Exel8098 adults.
WASp3/+ has no effect on the fraction of wing cells that have multiple wing hairs in Cip4Δ32/Df(3L)Exel8098 adults.
