Abstract excerpt
To study mechanisms for dominance of phenotype, eight ENU- and four X-ray-induced mutations at the alcohol dehydrogenase (Adh) locus were analyzed for partial dominance in their interaction with normal alleles. All ENU and one of the X-ray mutations were single base substitutions; the other three X-ray mutations were 9-21 base deletions. All but one of the 12 mutant alleles were selected for this study because...
