Abstract excerpt
In a set of "mutation accumulation lines," of Drosophila melanogaster that had originated from two different wild-caught lethal-carrying second chromosomes (Yamaguchi and Mukai 1974; Mukai and Cockerham 1977; Voelker, Schaffer and Mukai 1980) a correlation exists between high rates of reverse mutation at two visible loci and the ability to induce male recombination (Scobie and Schaffer 1982). The second and third...
