Abstract excerpt

Significant genetic variance in glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPDH) activity was observed between chromosome lines of Drosophila melanogaster that had each accumulated spontaneous mutations for approximately 300 generations. No restriction map variation was found in a 26-kb region surroundi...
