✦ Synopsis


A local population of Drosophila subobscura from Tiibingen has been studied with respect to inversion polymorphism and allozyme variation at 17 loci. Comparison with other investigations reveals a uniformity of allozyme variation in contrast to the highly differentiated inversion polymorphism of this species. Long term changes in allele frequencies were found at Ttibingen for the highly polymorphic enzyme systems Lap-4 and Aph3. Non-random association between inversions and enzyme genes was detected only between the Mdh-2 lo5 allele and the gene arrangements Ui+a+s and Ur+a.

Seasonal and year-to-year variations of the frequency and the types of inversions were studied in a Southern Greek Drosophila melanogaster wild population. Seven samples were taken during the years 1973-1975. The results based on the study of 6,200 chromosome slides may be summarised as follows: (1

In February 1978, in Puerto Montt (Chile) the palearctic species Drosophila subobscura was detected. The expansion of the species in this country has been very rapid, and now it is found over a distance of at least 2000 km North-South. The newly established populations are very flourishing and show
