Genetic analysis of chaste, a new mutation of Drosophila melanogaster characterized by extremely low female sexual receptivity.

Journal of neurogenetics - 1 Jan 2009

Juni Naoto, Yamamoto Daisuke

Abstract excerpt

By screening about 2,000 P-element-insertion lines of Drosophila melanogaster, we isolated a new behavioral mutant line, chaste (chst), the females of which display extraordinarily strong rejection behavior against courting males. The chst mutation is mapped to the muscleblind (mbl) locus at 54B on the right arm of chromosome 2. The reduced sexual receptivity in chst mutant females is reversed to the wild-type...
