Bar-eye (B)
is a dominant X-linked mutation with reduced number of facets in the eye
(wild type B+ has about 800 facets).
Homozygous females show semidominance: a more pronounced phenotype (68 facets) than heterozygotes
(358 facets).
BD (double-Bar) females
show even fewer facets (45), due to triplication of region 16A
of the X
chromosome.
