P, permissive; R, restrictive; U, unstable; S, stable.
a
An isogenized stock from which BG(P) originates (Bellen et al. 2004). It carries a spontaneous permissive allele.
b
The FM7c(R) and FM7c,679-5b(R) X chromosomes, respectively, contain the parent and an excision revertant of the py+(P) mutant (Robert et al. 2001).
c
The 413(NP) X chromosome, restrictive for gypsy expression, has been used to generate the set of lx deficiencies (Prud'homme et al. 1995; Robert et al. 2001).
d
The X parental chromosome of EY(R).
e
EYn stands for any of the 25 excision derivatives that remained fertile.
