Abstract excerpt
In Drosophila melanogaster, hybrid dysgenesis occurs in progeny from crosses between females lacking P elements and males carrying P elements scattered throughout the genome. We have genetically isolated a naturally occurring P insertion at cytological location 1A, from a Tunisian population. The Nasr'Allah-P(1A) element [NA-P(1A)] has a deletion of the first 871 bp including the P promoter. It is flanked at the...
