PublicationsCole ES, Frankel J, Jenkins LM. 1988. Interactions between janus and bcd cortical pattern mutants in tetrahymena thermophila. Development Genes and Evolution 197(8):476-89.
Comments"A phenotype that combines bcd and janA characteristics with some features suggestive of non-additive interactions" (Cole at al. 1988). eja1-1 is likely to be included, since both parents are known homozygotes for eja1-1.
