Spontaneous changes in Drosophila melanogaster transposable elements and their effects on fitness.

Heredity - 1 Dec 1999

Albornoz J, Domínguez A

Abstract excerpt

Twenty-eight spontaneous alterations modifying the hybridization banding pattern of six families of transposable elements (297, Foldback, copia, jockey, P and hobo) have been fixed in a set of mutation-accumulation lines of Drosophila melanogaster. Their effect on fitness has been studied by competition with the original pattern. Most alterations affecting transposable elements were shown to be rearrangements...
