Abstract excerpt
In Drosophila melanogaster, mutations in Su(var) and En(var) loci either suppress or enhance position effect variegation, respectively. Towards the cloning of these genes we have induced, recovered, and characterized a series of Su(var) mutations located on the third chromosome. These mutations were recovered from a P-element mutagenesis scheme in which the third chromosome P[ry+ delta 2-3](99B) element would...
