Abstract excerpt
The effect of treatment of males from an isogenic Drosophila melanogaster strain by limiting doses of ethanol fumes on transpositions of MGE 412 was examined. Validity of the phenomenon of transposition induction was demonstrated. We estimated rates of induced transposition (approximately 10(-2) events per site, per sperm, per generation versus < 10(-3) in control) and showed dose dependence of the rate on the...
