Abstract excerpt
The Triplo-lethal (Tpl) locus of Drosophila is the only known locus which is lethal when present in three copies rather than the normal two. After recovering a hybrid-dysgenesis-induced mutation of Tpl we used a rapid combination of transposon tagging, chromosome microdissection and PCR to clone the P element that had transposed into the Tpl region. That P element is located within the gene for a new and unique...
