- squat
Squat animals are dumpy as homozygotes, but roll as heterozygotes.
- increased acidified compartments
Animals contain excess acidified intracellular compartments. These compartments are positive for indicators such as Acridine Orange as well as LysoTracker Red, in a lysosome-like manner.
- rachis narrow
The nucleus-free core of germline cytoplasm in the gonad is not as wide as control animals.
- bitter tastant response variant
Animals are not repelled by bitter tastants such as quinine, primaquine quinacrine etc., to the same extent as control animals.
- enhanced taste aversion defective
The conditioned aversion to a specific chemical compound as a result of that compound being coupled with an unfavorable condition, such as starvation, does not increase to the same extent as observed for control animals.
- homolog association variant
The association of homologs during diakinesis and the maintenance of their association through meiosis I as well as the preservation of centromeric cohesin between sister chromatids does not proceed as it does in control animals.
- weak pumping
The contraction and relaxation movements of the pharyngeal muscle that mediate feeding is not as robust as compared to control animals.
