Has anyone seen mnC1 breakdown?

[Jeffrey Yuan]

I have been working with the crossover suppressor mnC1(dpy-10 unc-52) and 
recently noticed fertile and motile dpy animals after I moved him-5(e1490) into 
the strain.  The strain that I built is mnDf67 unc-4/mnC1; him-5(e1490) and soon
after building this strain, I noticed occasional motile and fertile dpy animals.
I have not seen any unc animals.  The strain does segregate mnC1 (dpy unc 
sterile), dead eggs, and wt animals.  Is mnC1 suspectible to breaking down?  
Anybody's experiences would be deeply appreciated!


Cheers,



Jeff Yuan
