Abstract excerpt
We have observed an abnormal genetic segregation in the progeny of crosses between males of the F71 (y wa/Y.w+) strain and females of various strains carrying marker mutations on their chromosome 2. The Y.w+ chromosome, previously described as possibly being associated with a translocation of the 22D region of chromosome 2, was shown to carry the 21A1-22E4 tip of the 2L chromosome. One chromosome 2 of F71 had a...
