Abstract excerpt
We have performed an F2 genetic screen to identify lethal mutations that map to the 44D-45B region of the Drosophila melanogaster genome. By screening 8500 mutagenized chromosomes for lethality over Df(2R)Np3, a deficiency which encompasses nearly 1% of the D. melanogaster euchromatic genome, we recovered 125 lines with lethal mutations that represent 38 complementation groups. The lethal mutations have been...
