Flies were generated from FM7-bearing females carrying the first chromosome listed in the above genotypes. N is the total female progeny examined from a particular cross, and estimated survival is the percentage of non-FM7 females of interest divided by 0.5. Homozygous Met27 female survival is presented first, followed by the corresponding heterozygous Met27 female survival, and finally representative p[Met+] transgenic survival.
