tG80_PKCi_c380G_subset

n=6 but high self learning score for UAS-GFP; chaGal4,chaGal80 x tubGal80ts; UASPKCi  (that I wanted to use as a positive control).

 

Possible cause putative solution
UASPKCi flies are not clean got new flies from the stock
start new crosses to redo the line ?
will test d42Gal4 as a driver again (waiting for males)
UAS-GFP  disturbing the effect
crosses to get d42Gal4,chaGal80ts sans la construction GFP
Ask for fly and forsee new crosses for c380Gal4
Biology I will think about it when all other possibilities will be tested for.

next step is to test a real positive control again (d42Gal4 or elavGal4 if I do not have any d42Gal4  males tomorrow), along with the d42Gal4,chaGal80.
