Isolation and characterization of Df(2L)BSC9

Df(2L)BSC9 was isolated as a P transposase-induced male recombination event
involving P{PZ}cup01355 and P{lacW}l(2)k13315k13315. The deletion was
isolated as a dp+-cn+ recombinant chromosome from the cross dpov1
cn1 bw1 females x dpov1 P{lacW}l(2)k13315k13315/P{PZ}cup01355
cn1; TMS, P{Delta2-3}99B/+ males. The deficiency chromosome retains the
miniwhite marker from the P{lacW} element based on w+ eye color in a
w1118 background. Polytene chromosome squashes showed the breakpoints
26F5-7;27A2-B2 (at least part of 27B2 remains as a faint band). The
deletion fails to complement cortQW55.
