Genetic localization of DDT resistance in Drosophila melanogaster (Diptera: Drosophilidae).

Journal of economic entomology - 1 Apr 1992

Dapkus D

Abstract excerpt

Adult resistance to DDT conferred by various regions of the second chromosome of a DDT-resistant strain of Drosophila melanogaster (Meigen) was analyzed using the quantitative genetic method of Thoday and a topical test procedure. Resistance was localized in a small region near and to the left of cn. Both the genetic method and the topical test technique were effective. Results are consistent with the idea that...
