Abstract
A genetic scheme has been devised to make possible the collection of male larvae of Drosophila melanogaster bearing a late-acting, sex-linked, recessive lethal, without the necessity of distinguishing them from their non-lethal sibs, which die at a very early age. The scheme utilizes the lethal chromosome, a balancer with a lethal deficiency, a reciprocal X:2 translocation sensitive to the action of its homologue, Segregation Distorter.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
