Until recently the alcohol dehydrogenase of Drosophila melanogaster was thought to act only in the first step of primary alcohol oxidation, producing an aldehyde. Instead, acetic acid is the main product of a two-step process. A rapid procedure was developed for the isolation and purification of two

Strains of Drosophila melanogaster homozygous for either the AdhF or the AdhS allele were kept on food supplemented with ethanol for 20 generations. These strains (FE and SE) were tested for tolerance to ethanol and compared with control strains (FN and SN). The E strains showed increased tolerance

Eight Drosophila melanogaster strains, seven homozygous for AdhF alleles and one for an Adh-null mutant, were compared for ADH activity in males and adult mortality on ethanol-supplemented food. The strains differed considerably in these qualities. A positive correlation was found between ADH activi
