Properties of amylase of two strains homozygous for two different amylase variants of Drosophila rnelanogaster were determined. Amylase of larvae and adults of both strains showed a pH optimum around pit 7.0. The Amy I enz)alae showed a higher temperature stability. They differed in maximal activity

The effects of different feeding conditions on amylase and c~-gtucosidase activities were studied in larvae and flies of Drosophila melanogaster homozygous for different amylase alleles. Starch generally enhances amylase activities in both strains, but the ultimate effect depends on other component
Simultaneous multiple transpositions and long-term genetic instability have been described in the ctMR2 strain of Drosophila melanogaster and its derivatives. This strain originated from a cross that was dysgenic in the P-M system. While spontaneous instability declined over 2 years, instability has
