Abstract excerpt
eql (equatorial-less) is a recessive lethal mutation on the second chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster. J. Campos-Ortega found that eql clones in somatic mosaic flies have reduced numbers of photoreceptor cells, and he suggested that only the R1, R6, and R7 photoreceptor cells were missing in t...
