Conditional dominant lethals (CDL) represent a special class of genetic mutations observed in Drosophila. Mutation manifests as a dominant allele in one genotype, but lethality is not expressed in another genotype. CDL mutants exhibit a set of traits discriminating them from classic mutations. We observed unusually high mobility of flies and high sexual activity of males carrying these mutations. We used special...
