      Heterozygotes have a slight transformation of haltere to wing at 29oC and 17oC. Ubx130/UbxCbx-1 flies show a temperature sensitive phenotype; flies grown at 29oC have a slight conversion of haltere to wing and strong transformation of wing to haltere, while those grown at 17oC have a strong haltere to wing transformation and a slight transformation of wing to haltere. The UbxCbx-1 transformation in the wing is generally reduced and the Ubx130 transformation in the haltere is generally enhanced in the transheterozygote, compared to heterozygous or homozygous UbxCbx-1 or Ubx130 flies respectively.
      The frequency of variegated bithorax transformations seen in Df(3R)red-P52 heterozygotes is increased in flies also containing a copy of Ubx130.
      T(2;3)T1-19/Ubx130 flies show reduced viability and fecundity.
      Transheterozygotes with UbxS1, UbxS2 and UbxS3 are viable.
      Flies carrying both RpII215Ubl and Ubx130 show a greater transformation of haltere to wing than flies carrying RpII215Ubl alone.
      Increases the frequency of the trx bithorax-variegated phenotype in heterozygous combination with Df(3R)red-P52.
      Like Ubx1 as a dominant. RK1A.
      Ubx130 heterozygotes have normal halteres and nota.
      In Ubx130 mutant adults, halters are homogeneous in size and shape, being slightly larger than those in wild-type.
      Ubx130 heterozygotes display slightly enlarged halteres compared to wild-type.
      The anterior compartment is increased in size in Ubx[130]/Ubx[bx-3] haltere discs. The posterior compartment is increased in size in Ubx[130]/Ubx[pbx-1] haltere discs.

      Heterozygotes have slightly enlarged halteres compared to wild type. Trl13C+/+Ubx130 double heterozygous flies have larger halteres than Ubx130 heterozygotes. Homeotic transformations include a low frequency of patches on the haltere and postnotum that develop like wing and notum tissues respectively.
      Flies doubly heterozygous for Ubx130 and Trl13C show larger halteres than Ubx130 heterozygotes alone, and with variable penetrance and expressivity show homeotic transformations of the haltere and postnotum. When zae(bx) is added to the doubly heterozygous combination the Ubx phenotype is enhanced.
      Ubx130/TrlR85 flies have a low penetrance of haltere to wing transformations and notal transformations. The penetrance of these phenotypes is significantly enhanced by heterozygosity for Df(2R)Δ18, even though the phenotypes are present at a very low penetrance (<0.5%) in Ubx130, Df(2R)Δ18 double heterozygotes.
      56% of Ubx130, Trl13C double heterozygotes have halteres that quite heterogeneous in size and larger than Ubx130 alone. 63% of Ubx130, Df(3L)Aprt-21 double heterozygotes have halteres that quite heterogeneous in size and larger than Ubx130 alone. 78% of Ubx130, Df(3L)Aprt-21, Trl13C triple heterozygotes have halteres that quite heterogeneous in size and larger than Ubx130 alone, also exhibiting a stronger phenotype than any two of the alleles used. The haltere becomes a wing -like structure with wing veins and hairs on the wing margin.
      TrlR85/Ubx130; pho1 flies show an enhancement of the Ubx130 phenotype in 18% of flies.
      Double heterozygous lolalk02512 Ubx130 flies do not show significant increase in the expressivity of the Ubx phenotype. lolalk02512/+; Trl13C/Ubx130 flies display a higher frequency (18%) of strong haltere-to-wing transformations compared to Trl13C/Ubx130 siblings (6.3%). This increased transformation is often accompanied by a notal transformation.
      The reduced size of the capitellum seen in dpp[d5]/dpp[d12] adults is partially suppressed by Ubx[130]/+.

      Temperature-shift experiments show that the temperature sensitive period in Ubx130/UbxCbx-1 flies extends throughout embryonic and larval life.
      The brm2 or trxE2 mutations greatly increase the frequency of haltere to wing transformation in double heterozygotes with Ubx130.
