Abstract excerpt

A system of genetic instability was developed by crosses of males y2 wa4 with females C(1)DX, ywf. Mutations occurred in the second and third generations with the rate 0.7.10(-3)-1.5.10(-3). A novel gene named Suppressor of wa4--Su(wa4) was selected in this system. The Su(wa4)M1 is dominant and w...
