[Genetic analysis of new mutations affecting the phenotypic manifestations of alleles from the achaete-scute complex in Drosophila melanogaster].

Abstract excerpt

The achaete-scute complex contains four homologous genes involved in formation of the central and periphery nervous system in Drosophila melanogaster. The achaete and scute mutations lead to reduction of bristles and hairs on head and thorax. We found mutations at three loci not analyzed earlier. The suppressor of scute mutations suppress phenotypic expression of the achaete and scute alleles. Mutations in two...
