Abstract excerpt
Chromosomal inversion In(3R)C and extra dorsocentral and scutellar macrochaetae are correlated in Asturian natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster in that selection for extra bristles produced an increase in In(3R)C frequency. In the present work two populations with significantly different frequencies of the In(3R)C inversion were created and a significant positive correlation between In(3R)C frequency...
