Gr16 (chromosome 2, 6.9 cM) is a dominant, grey egg mutation of the domestic silkmoth, Bombyx mori, which produces an opaque instead of a translucent chorion. To determine the underlying cause of this defect, we examined the effects of the mutation on chorion ultrastructure, protein accumulation, and biosynthesis patterns, and on the restriction patterns of early chorion structural genes, using the presumed...
