The fruitJEy, Drosophila melanogaster, is an excellent organism for dissecting the components of vision genetically. ## Many mutations have been generated thal affect a diversity of processes important in vision. Through a combined application of molecular and genetic approaches many of the genes i

## Abstract Sexβdetermining mechanisms appear to be very diverse in invertebrates. Haplodiploidy is a widespread mode of reproduction in insects: males are haploid and females are diploid. Several models have been proposed for the genetic mechanisms of sex determination in haplodiploid Hymenoptera.
The extent of neurogenesis in Drosophila is under the control of the so-called neurogenic genes, named for their mutant phenotype of causing neural hyperplasia. Their wild-type products appear to be responsible for a signal chain that decides the fate of ectodermal cells in the embryo. Various kinds
## To further comprehend how synthesis and assembly of myofibrillar components is regulated, several laboratories have undertaken genetic studies of muscle development in Drosophila melanogaster. This small fly lends itself well to classical and molecular genetic ap- proaches, and possesses a set
## Abstract Pulse pressure (PP) is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. PP rises with age, more so in women. We examined sex differences in the correlations and variance components of PP in adult subjects from 767 nuclear families, enriched with those containing twins, from the Vi
## Abstract The genetics of sex determination is a child of the twentieth century, which overturned the previously held view that sex was determined by the environment. The last quarter of the century witnessed an active search for sexβdetermining genes in mammals. Although successful, the modus op
