Strains of Drosophila ananassae, each descended from a single inseminated female collected in nature, were maintained in laboratory cultures for 10 to nearly 50 generations. The chromosomal analysis of these strains was made immediately after their capture and chromosomal inversions were detected. T
Crosses were made between geographic races of Drosophila ananassae from different localities in India. All these strains employed in the present experiments were polymorphic for the gene arrangements in the second chromosome due to the occurrence of alpha (subterminal) inversion. After ten generatio
In Drosophila subobscura sex ratio (SR) males, a mechanism compensating for the loss of Y-sperm is present since these males produced a higher number of female offspring than did males of three control strains. Moreover, the number of female offspring from SR-males was even higher (average 1719) tha
