A natural population of D. melanogaster from Korea (Chungju) has been examined with respect to inversion polymorphism. Thirteen different inversions were found distributed approximately equally on chromosome pairs II and III. Some of them proved to be frequent and cosmopolitan, others rare and endem

Populations of Drosophila melanogaster from Eugene and Medford, Oregon, and from Napa and Bakersfield, California, were studied to determine whether second chromosome allozyme allele (aGpdh, Mdh and Adh) and inversion [In(2L)t and In(2RJNS] frequencies exhibit dines, as do populations along the East
We have sampled wild chromosomes from two natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster and obtained flies fully homozygous for the second chromosome, the third chromosome, or both, as well as flies heterozygous for one or both wild chromosomes and balancer chromosomes. Rate of embryogenesis (egg l
