Male mutant phenotypes

Mutation Copulation* Fertility Sperm motility Map position
40A-G13 (wild-type) 12/20 + +
5G23 11/20 + +
5L3 0/20 −/+ + between G13 and c
5M8 12/20 −(thick sperm) distal to G13
5N18 20/20 + +
5N30 16/20 −(degenerate testes) between G13 and c
5P1 6/20 + + near Bl

Number of males, from a total of 20 tested, that copulated with females within 30 min. 

Some 5L3 males eventually did court and produce offspring after several days. One 5M8 male produced offspring after several days. 

Map positions of the auditory behavior phenotype are indicated for 5L3, 5M8, and 5N30. 5P1 was mapped on the basis of the sedentary phenotype (see text). In addition, the male sterility of 5M8 was mapped near c, and that of 5N30 was mapped between pr and G13. The G13 insertion site is at 42B on the polytene chromosomes.
