the UAS-Dl is the one used in the Doherty paper (what the paper
neglects to mention is that I'm the one who made it and gave it to
them)

>nrtM54
>========
the source of nrtM54 is discussed in the text. The mutant that has
traditionally been called dabM54 (from Gertler and Hoffmann) is
actually a mutation in nrt, as was shown recently by Liebl et al
(Development, 2003; also referenced in the text)

trio 123.4 is from Eric Liebl. What he told me is that it is an
imprecise excision of the P-element in l(3)036810

We got sim-GAL4 from Steve Crews, so my guess would be that it is the
P3.7, but that is just a guess.
