The mutagenic efficiency of ionizing radiations has been tested on different lines of Drosophila melanogaster. It has been shown that differential lethal effects are obtained when irradiated females from different lines are mated to flies carrying heterozygous lethal genes. The results seem not to b
A highly inbred, long-term selected for low fitness strain LA of Drosophila melanogaster posesses a significant mutational load and unusually high rates of spontaneous mutability as revealed by CyL/Pm method. Our results indicate that during cross of CyL/Pm to LA strains, destabilization of copia-li
The aim of the experiment was to determine if the estimated genetic distance between two populations could be used to predict the amount of heterosis that would occur when they were crossed. Eight lines of known relatedness to each other were produced by eight generations of sib mating and sub-linin
