SceKO mutant (both zygotically and maternally) embryos display homeotic transformation phenotype with thoracic and abdominal segments T1-A7 transformed into copies resembling A8.
SceKO zygotic mutants all die at the end of embryogenesis.
Homeotic transformation of abdominal bristles (bristles in A2 segment resembling those characteristic for A10) is observed in adults bearing somatic clones of SceKO homozygous cells.
Eye discs composed mainly of homozygous cells are morphologically normal.
The cuticle is indistinguishable from wild type in homozygous stage 16 embryos.
SceKO is an enhancer of embryonic/first instar larval cuticle phenotype of Asx22P4
SceKO is an enhancer of embryonic abdominal segment 8 | ectopic phenotype of Asx22P4
SceKO is a suppressor | partially of spermatid | germline clone | absent phenotype of Scer\GAL4vas.PU, TER94GD9777
