We have studied the influence of some mutations in the bithorax complex on the observed synapsis dependent phenotype of the genotypes Cbx1Ubx1/+ and bx3 4e/Ubx1. The effect of these mutations is similar to that introduced by disruption of pairing or by the za mutation. Among the bx mutations, we fin

The zeste locus plays a central role in transvection phenomena, where the synaptic pairing of chromosomes carrying genes with which zeste interacts influences the expression of these genes. To explore the possible functions of the zeste gene product in this process, we have determined the DNA sequen
A fine-structure analysis of the white locus in Drosophila hydei was carried out by means of allele recombination. Four mutants, derived from wild type, mapped at three subloci. These are possibly homologous to the main subloci 2, 3, and 4 of D. melanogaster. Three secondary mutants, derived from th
