Tests of gene disruptions. a Exons of gene CG7956 (a.k.a. spermathreecae) are shown as arrows, with light grey arrows denoting alternative splice variants of exons. The black portions of the exons represent the region coding for the protein’s SAC domain, while the hashed exons represent the region coding for the Inositol phosphatase domain. Insertion locations, denoted by numbered triangles, for the original experimental line (3: P{GawB}1471) and the three additional lines (1: Mi{ET1}CG7956MB05039, 2: Mi{Mic}CG7956MI01858, and 4: PBac{IT.GAL4}CG79560347-G4). Insertions 1, 2, and 3 are in the same orientation as the gene, while insertion 4 is of unknown orientation. b Proportion of females with three spermathecae, with the sample size listed on each bar. Significant differences between observed frequency of three spermathecae and expected value within lines are indicated as: **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001
