  1. χ2 analysis of the number of progeny obtained from dUTX1/CyOActGFP; Sgs3-GAL4 crossed to dUTX1/CyOKrGFP or crossed to dUTX1 UAS-EcRIR/CyOKrGFP with 2 degrees of freedom at 12 h RFP. The control crosses were Sgs3-Gal4-crossed to either dUTX1/CyOKrGFP or crossed to dUTX1 UAS-EcRIR/CyOKrGFP with 1 degree of freedom.
  2. df is the number of the degrees of freedom. P is the statistical significance value obtained from the χ2 test.
  3. *All genotypes also contain salivary gland driver Sgs3-GAL4/+
  4. †The observed numbers from the crosses are shown with the expected numbers for each genotype, based on Mendelian ratios of 1:1:1 or 1:1 for control crosses, shown in parentheses.
