lncRNA mutants develop male-specific fertility defects. (A) Fertility profiles of 105 lncRNA mutants. (B) Deletion of lncRNA CR44455/6 results in male sterility, whereas CR44455/6−/− females were fully fertile. (C) A qualitative fertility assay was performed for both male and female mutant flies of CR42858−/−. Deletion of CR42858 substantially reduced fertility in males, but not in females. Values represent means ± SEM for 15 crosses each.
