Abstract excerpt
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the attached-X method compared with the standard Basc method, and, using this method, to find out whether the observed differences in genetic polymorphisms are related to differences in lethal mutation rates in D. melanogaster and D. simulans. When EMS-tr...
