โฆ Synopsis
Three auxotrophic mutants at two loci (pur 1 and gua 1) apparently involved in purine metabolism were mapped cytologically to region 9E1-9E3 on the X-chromosome of Drosophila. Because mutants of pur 1 behaved as semi-lethals against deficiencies even on permissive medium, it appears that the pur 1 locus is vital to the fly and its auxotrophic mutants are hypomorphs.

Focuses of the l(1)BP4, vermilion and sevenless genes located in the same band 10A1-2 of Drosophila melanogaster X-chromosome, have been compared. For this purpose first the fate map of the blastoderm for 60 pairs of adult cuticular landmarks has been built based on scoring 612 gynandromorphs. The l
