Abstract excerpt
The influence of culture density and genotype on the polyteny degree of giant chromosomes (PDC) in Drosophila melanogaster was investigated. The reliable depression of the polytene chromosomes endoreduplication function under increased culture density was revealed. The essential dependence of the PDC on the genotype was shown. Correlation between the PDC and the number of adaptive features was established. The...
