Localization and mapping of the main gene responsible for fast development in Drosophila melanogaster.

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila melanogaster Oregon-R lab stock was subjected to mass selection during 682 and 459 generations for fast and slow developmental time, respectively. This paper reports the experiments that located the major gene for fast developmental time on the third chromosome by use of an enzymatic system as well as body markers. The recombination mapping using means of eclosion placed this fast gene at 3.46.55.
