β¦ Synopsis
The sex-linked gene, tuh-1, produces a maternal effect that is associated with the tumorous head abnormality in Drosophila melanogaster. With the aid of various known deletions, tuh-1 has been localized to band 20A1-2 on the salivary chromosome map of the X.

Transfer RNAAsp2delta was isolated from Drosophila melanogaster by affinity chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose. The tRNA was iodinated "in vitro" with Na [125I] and hybridized "in situ" to salivary gland chromosomes from Drosophila. Subsequent autoradiography allowed the localization of the
The effects of chromosomal rearrangements on the expression of the gene Pgd coding for 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (PGD) was studied in D. melanogaster. Of 21 chromosomal rearrangements examined, 2 produced complete loss of PGD activity, 10 markedly decreased it, 3 slightly increased it, and 6
## Abstract Evidence is presented supporting the suggestion that homozygosity for the repairβdeficient mutants __meiβ9__^a^ __meiβ41__^D5^ is associated with a maternal effect which affects detrimentally the recovery rate of Y chromosomeβbearing offspring.
The deficiency of the 38B-40 region containing histone genes in one of the 2nd chromosomes of D. melanogaster triploid intersexes increases the template activity of X-chromosomes both in vivo and in vitro without noticeably affecting autosome activity. This deficiency in the heterozygous state inhib
