Abstract excerpt
The yellow (y) gene maps near the telomere of the X chromosome in Drosophila melanogaster but not in D. subobscura. Thus the strong reduction in the recombination rate associated with telomeric regions is not expected in D. subobscura. To study the divergence of a gene whose recombination rate di...
