Abstract excerpt
The position effect of the AR 4-24 P[white, rosy] transposon was studied at cytological position 60F. Three copies of the transposon (within approximately 50-kb region) resulted in a spatially restricted pattern of white variegation. This pattern was modified by temperature and by removal of the Y chromosome, suggesting that it was due to classical heterochromatin-induced position effect variegation (PEV). In...
