A latitudinal cline in characteristics associated with the P DNA transposable element is well known in eastern Australian populations of Drosophila melanogaster. In order to survey the long-term patterns of P-M system characteristics and genomic P element content, we established 292 isofemale lines from 54 localities in 1996-1997 and evaluated them for gonadal dysgenesis (GD) sterility and the ratio of KP to...
