Abstract excerpt
The phenotypes of several heterozygous combinations of mutations which map within the Ultrabithorax gene of Drosophila melanogaster are modulated by the extent of somatic homologous chromosome pairing, an effect known as transvection. One can discriminate between otherwise phenotypically similar mutations via their transvection behavior. This suggested the existence of previously undetected intragenic functional...
