A sex-influenced modifier in Drosophila that affects a broad spectrum of target loci including the histone repeats.

Genetics - 1 Jul 1997

Bhadra U, Pal-Bhadra M, Birchler J A

Abstract excerpt

A second chromosomal trans-acting modifier, Lightener of white (Low), modulates the phenotypic expression of various alleles of the white eye color gene. This modifier has an unusually broad spectrum of affected genes including white, brown, scarlet and the eye developmental genes, Bar and Lobe. In addition, Low weakly suppresses position effect variegation. Northern blot hybridization with different X and...
