This set of large duplications covers a large portion of the second chromosome. These duplications are particularly useful in screening for dosage-dependent enhancers and suppressors of mutant phenotypes. In addition, because most of the Cam duplications are nested within inverted chromosomal segments, they act as balancer chromosomes for the duplicated regions, making them ideal for recovering and maintaining haplolethal and haplosterile mutations.
