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

Classically, position effect variegation has been studied in Drosophila and results when a euchromatic gene is placed adjacent to either centromeric heterochromatin or to a telomeric domain. In such a circumstance expression of the locus variegates, being active in some cells and silent in others. O
