Description

This track shows the locations of P transposable element insertions from P-Screen, the online database of the BDGP Gene Disruption Project. The name used for each item is the strain which has a P element disruption at that location. When a stock order number is available for the strain, a link is provided to the Bloomington stock center where the strain can be ordered. The project's strain library contains 1045 strains disrupting at least 1,000 different genes, corresponding to more than 25% of the estimated 3600 genes on the Drosophila autosomes essential for adult viability.
