Figure 2. Generation and characterization of new bantam mutant alleles.

Figure 2

Imprecise mobilization of the P-element from banEP3622 was carried out to generate stronger alleles for the ban gene. One sterile line, ban20, and one lethal line, ban12, were isolated. The breakpoints of two mutant lines are shown, with the adjacent genes indicated. Mature bantam miRNA is indicated in green. The chromosomal position and sequence region is based on Drosophila melanogaster (R5.13).
