Genetic instability in Drosophila melanogaster: cytogenetic analysis of MR-induced X-chromosome deficiencies.

Abstract:

:We present data that demonstrate that three MR elements isolated from wild populations of Drosophila melanogaster on two continents can cause large deletions of the X chromosome in males. The deleted chromosomes, termed mini-X chromosomes, are induced at a frequency of approximately 1:4000 in chromosomes that are initially free of P elements. In situ hybridizations using a cloned P sequence as a probe fail to reveal any sequences homologous to the nomadic P family at the deletion breakpoints. Genetic analysis of 12 such mini-X chromosomes also reveals that there are no "hotspots" of chromosome breakage and that there must have been a minimum of three distinct distal breakpoints and five different proximal breakpoints in the formation of these deleted chromosomes. In fact all 12 proximal and 12 distal breakpoints may well be unique. Our data show that MR elements generate essentially random breaks along the X chromosome. We emphasize that we find no involvement of P sequences in the chromosome breakage process, consonant with the notion that MR elements exert their influence on processes involved in mitotic crossing-over.

  • Changes in the shapes of leaves and flowers upon overexpression of cytochrome P450 in Arabidopsis.

    abstract::In Arabidopsis, the two-dimensional expansion of leaves is regulated via the polarized elongation of cells.
