Homozygous deletion chromosome balanced by GFP- and dpy-10-marked inversion. ok1966 homozygotes are viable but produce progengy that are primarily Lva or Lvl. Heterozygotes are WT with relatively dim pharyngeal GFP signal, and segregate WT dim GFP, Dpy bright GFP (mIn1 homozygotes), and non-GFP tm3039 homozygotes. Pick WT dim GFP and check for correct segregation of progeny to maintain. Reference: Rodenas E, et al. Mol Biol Cell. 2012 Mar;23(5):930-44.
