Abstract excerpt
Spontaneous mutations were accumulated for a total of 1,678,388 allele-generations in several hundred replicate second chromosome lines. These lines were compared of a Cy chromosome and one of three different lethal bearing chromosomes from natural populations. Electrophoretic mobility and/or activity change was screened for seven enzyme loci. Forty-four null mutations were detected, but no band-morph mutations...
