| TY5684 | sdc-2(y93) X. | Temperature-sensitive. Maintain at 15C. Complements other sdc-2 alleles at 15C. At 20C animals are not Dpy or Tra, but there is a low penetrance of lethality, some Egl animals, and some animals will Bag after a couple days of egg-laying. y93 fails to complement other sdc-2 alleles at 25C; homozygotes are Egl,Tra and weakly Dpy at higher temperatures. Shifting embryos (prepared from non-Dpy non-Egl non-Tra gravid adults at 20C) from 20C to 25C is sufficient to alter their phenotype. Reference: Nusbaum C & Meyer BJ.

| TY714 | +/szT1 [lon-2(e678)] I; sdc-2(y46)/szT1 X. | Heterozygotes are WT. |
| TY824 | +/szT1 [lon-2(e678)] I; sdc-2(y74)/szT1 X. | Heterozygotes are WT and segregate WT, Lon males, and dead eggs. sdc-2(y74)/sdc-2(y74) is lethal, although about 3% of the animals escape the lethality. These animals are extremely Dpy, extensively masculinized, and never fertile. |
