Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Eggs laid by cuffWM25, cuffWM25/cuffKG05951 and cuffWM25/cuffQQ37 females show a variable ventralised phenotype.

The oocyte nucleus has defective morphology in 10-20% of stage 9 egg chambers in cuffWM25/cuffKG05951 females, often the DNA seems to localise to the periphery of the nucleus.

In newly eclosed cuffWM25/cuffKG05951 females, highly branched fusomes are observed in regions 1 and 2 of the germaria (as occurs in wild-type females). However, as the mutant females age, there is a sharp increase in the number of germaria without cysts that contain highly branched fusomes; 1 week after eclosion, 54% of the germaria do not have highly branched fusomes and 2 weeks after eclosion, 83% of the germaria do not have highly branched fusomes in the mutant females. The mutant cysts in older female appear to arrest in early stages in the germaria containing spectrosome-like structures. In addition, the overall morphology of germline cysts in region 2b and/or region 3 of the germaria is also disrupted in cuffWM25/cuffKG05951 females; 1 week after eclosion, 72% of the germaria do not have cysts of normal morphology and 2 weeks after eclosion, 84% of the germaria do not have cysts of normal morphology.

Absence of egg chambers or degeneration of early egg chambers.

The segregation distortion seen in males carrying either the SD-5star or SD-LosArenos Dp(2;2)RanGAPSD chromosome variant (in a sensitive Rsp background) is enhanced (the k[[c]] value, or proportion of Dp(2;2)RanGAPSD-bearing progeny as the fraction of total progeny (corrected for viability), is significantly increased) if the males are also carrying a single copy of cuffWM25.

The ventralised phenotype seen in eggs derived from cuffWM25 and cuffWM25/cuffQQ37 females is partially suppressed by lokunspecified. The defects in germline cyst development seen in cuffWM25 females are partially suppressed by lokunspecified; many highly branched fusomes are seen in the double mutant germaria.
