Chromosomal control of mating activity in Drosophila pseudoobscura.

Abstract:

:Lines containing two third-chromosome inversions (Arrowhead and Pikes Peak) of Drosophila pseudoobscura selected for fast and slow mating speed were crossed to a multichromosomal, dominant marker inversion stock, and strains with various combinations of chromosomal derivation were tested for their mating activity. When lines were selected isodirectionally with the known third-chromosome control, the third chromosome was found to possess major epistatic control over mating speed, followed by the fourth, with no appreciable effect from the first and second. However, polygenic modification mating activity was found throughout the genome when selection was applied opposite to the original third-chromosome control. The work reported here strengthens the evidence that the adaptive role of chromosomal polymorphism has a behavioral basis in mating activity.

  • The breakpoint of an inversion of chromosome 14 in a T-cell leukemia: sequences downstream of the immunoglobulin heavy chain locus are implicated in tumorigenesis.

    abstract::T-cell tumors are characterized by inversions or translocations of chromosome 14. The breakpoints of these karyotypic abnormalities occur in chromosome bands 14q11 and 14q32--the same bands in which the T-cell receptor (TCR) alpha-chain and immunoglobulin heavy chain genes have been mapped, respectively. Patients with...
