Drosophila melanogaster collected from natural populations were examined fo thermostability variants within electrophoretic mobility classes of two enzymes. In alcohol dehydrogenases, two discrete forms of the "slow" allozyme and three discrete forms of the "fast" allozyme were revealed by postelect
Eight Drosophila melanogaster strains, seven homozygous for AdhF alleles and one for an Adh-null mutant, were compared for ADH activity in males and adult mortality on ethanol-supplemented food. The strains differed considerably in these qualities. A positive correlation was found between ADH activi
Allozyme polymorphisms at seven loci have been studied in nine natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster from the SaΓ΄ne and RhΓ΄ne valleys sampled in 1973 and 1974. A great deal of polymorphism was observed; an individual was on the average heterozygous at 20.2% of its loci. The populations were
