Figure 4. Cuticular defects observed in the nine lethal regions from the D. melanogaster X-chromosome.

Figure 4

A. Males carrying the 3A–3D region show the abdominal ablation observed in Xmel/Ysan hybrid males and XmelXmel/Ysan hybrid females. B–I. Hybrid males that carry any of the other eight embryonic lethal Xmel-linked regions show different phenotypes and the abdominal ablation is more rare than in Xmel/Ysan males. The genotypes (and the cytological bands of the duplication) of each of the shown males are: A. Dp(1;Y)BSC75 (X:2C1-3E4). B. Dp(1;Y)BSC159 (X:4A5-4D7). C. Dp(1;Y)BSC289 (X:5E1-6C7). D. Dp(1;Y)BSC176 (X:7B2-7D18). E. Dp(1;Y)BSC126 (X:11C2-11D1). F. Dp(1;Y)BSC327 (X:11D5-11E8). G. Dp(1;Y)BSC186 (X:12C1-12F4). H. Dp(1;Y)BSC269 (X:12E9-13C5). I. Dp(1;Y)BSC11 (X:16F6-18A7).
