Abstract excerpt
To study how the microgravitational environment influences the character of the progeny of Drosophila melanogaster, the S1 insects produced during the 8-days of space flight were self-bred for four generations. Higher variational rate was found in S2. After removing the variant flies, the variational rate of the remaining Drosophila progeny decreased generation by generation. There was no notable sex-linked...
