Abstract excerpt

In the chromosome region 89A of Drosophila melanogaster, a few meiotic genes have been suggested to exist besides c3G and rec. We carried out local mutagenesis using a strain carrying a P element-insertion (plwB) at 89A, and obtained new genetic variants. Two are female sterile mutations, an alle...
