Description

Deletion caused by imprecise excision of the P{lwB} element of argosW11. Deletion removes some of the 5' exon and the beginning of the major open reading frame.

      Homozygous clones in the eye disc show normal R8 specification regardless of clone size.

      (Yang and Baker, 2001)

      argosΔ5/argosΔ7 embryos exhibit expansion of the denticle belts. Wing, leg, haltere and eye/antenna argosΔ5/argosΔ7 mutant discs can be in vivo cultured.

      (Simcox, 1997)

      Homozygous clones in the eye cause extra outer photoreceptors, severity of the phenotype depends on the size of the clone. Homozygotes display severe disruption and broadening of the embryonic head skeleton, broadening of the ventral epidermis as shown by increased distance between the Keilins organs.
