Wild-type flies have four scutellar bristles, two anterior and two posterior. Disruption of this pattern is frequently observed in cell cycle mutants. Scutellar bristles were counted for 100 homozygous individuals of each of the three KLP38B mutant alleles. Oregon R is a standard wild-type strain. Duplicated bristles are two bristles from the same socket, or two bristles immediately adjacent to each other; extra bristles are bristles not in the characteristic location.
