Effects of P element insertions on quantitative traits in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Feb 1992

Mackay T F, Lyman R F, Jackson M S

Abstract excerpt

P element mutagenesis was used to construct 94 third chromosome lines of Drosophila melanogaster which contained on average 3.1 stable P element inserts, in an inbred host strain background previously free of P elements. The homozygous and heterozygous effects of the inserts on viability and abdominal and sternopleural bristle number were ascertained by comparing the chromosome lines with inserts to insert-free...
