Heterozygous larvae have a significantly higher number of plasmatocytes than wild-type larvae. This increase in plasmatocytes is present both early and late in the third instar.
[+]/Cyt-b5unspecified is rescued by Cyt-b5UAS.cKa/Scer\GAL4He.PZ
The dominant effect of Cyt-b5unspecified on plasmatocyte number is rescued by expression of Cyt-b5Scer\UAS.cKa under the control of Scer\GAL4He.PZ.
