Subject: In(3LR)64;84
Hi Ed--
I recently received a stock from Jim Kennison that has a chromosome in it
that you constructed. The chromosome was described in a paper from Ian
Duncan (Hopmann et al., Genetics 1995 139(2):815--833, Transvection in the
iab-5,6,7 region of the bithorax complex of Drosophila: Homology
Independent interactions in trans) as
Dp(3;3)S462 + In(3LR)64;84 + In(3R)C
In a DIS note (D. I. S. 1980  55:207--208 ), you described Dp(3;3)S462 as an
insertion of 89D1-2;90D1 into 64C-E, but didn't mention an inversion of
64;84 on the chromosome. Was the inversion induced at the same time as the
Dp(3;3)?
We try to resolve questions about stocks before we start distributing them.
I hope you can help with this little problem. I'll update FlyBase with
whatever information you can provide.
Best regards,
Kevin
