Df(2L)TW137 in combination with a pair of introgressions from D.simulans spanning 30F1-31E7 to 35D7-36A14 Dsim\Int(2L)S and 21A1 to 22D1--23A2 Dsim\Int(2L)D produces fertile male flies. These flies are female sterile.
Does not cause unconditional lethality in hybrid females when heterozygous with D.simulans chromosome.
Heterozygosity for Df(2L)TW137 results in 1.0% X chromosome nondisjunction and 0.0% fourth chromosome nondisjunction in In(1)FM7/X ; svspa-pol females.
Heterozygosity for this deletion has no effect on the mutant ovarian phenotype of ovoD2.
Moderate Minute.
No second site non-complementing phenotype with zipEbr and zipmhc-c6.1.
The Df(2L)TW137 chromosome does not act as a dominant suppressor of telomeric silencing (assayed using the effect of the chromosome on the eye colour phenotype of flies carrying "P{wvar}KR3-2", a stable "brown-red" variant of the P{3\'WP-2,wvar}2Lt insertion).
