Abstract excerpt
Terminal deletions that result in chromosomal fragments with centromeres (centric fragments) are relatively easy to generate and study in the haplodiploid insect Nasonia. We investigated the transmission stability of two chromosomal fragments generated by chemical mutagenesis. Visible mutations at the R locus (peach-233 and St-DR) and a linked body-colour mutant (purple) were used to track transmission of the...
