Genetic control of pheromones in Drosophila simulans. II. kété, a locus on the X chromosome.

Genetics - 1 Mar 1993

Ferveur J F, Jallon J M

Abstract excerpt

The production of Drosophila cuticular hydrocarbons, including contact pheromones, is under polygenic control. To investigate X-linked loci, EMS mutations were induced in Drosophila simulans flies. A mutant strain was discovered which in both sexes show a reduction in the biosynthesis of both 7-tricosene (7-T) the species contact pheromone and all other linear hydrocarbons. The locus controlling this effect,...
