Abstract excerpt
The excision repair capacity of the third chromosomal mus mutations of Drosophila has been re-evaluated. A partial deficiency in the excision repair of pyrimidine dimers originally observed in the mus304 mutants is now attributed to the presence of a secondary phr mutation in that stock. Since th...
