Table 3. Mutations that disrupt CCY reading frame result in male sterility despite the presence of a wild-type copy of CCY.
Total flies sequenced | Flies with in-frame indels | Flies with out-of-frame indels | Flies with no double peaksa | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Not sterile | 14 | 9 | 0 | 5 |
Sterile | 16 | 0 | 9 | 7 |
Total | 30 | 9 | 9 | 12 |
Indels on the free Y in males resulted in double peaks on sequence traces. A subset of flies, both sterile and nonsterile, had no double peaks and therefore no recognizable lesion.
