Germ cell selection in genetic mosaics in Drosophila melanogaster.
Heritable mutations in the germ line lead to genetically heterogeneous, or mosaic, gonads. Many of the genes used in germ-line development also play roles in somatic development [Saffman, E. E. & Lasko, P. (1999) Cell. Mol. Life Sci. 55, 1141-1163]. Mutations in these genes may have cellular phenotypes throughout germ-line development leading to their differential elimination or survival, as ha...
متن کاملThe Formation of Dumpy Vortices in Mosaics of Drosophila Melanogaster.
NTERMEDIATE patterns in development have been termed “prepatterns” I by STERN (1954a,b). STERN hypothesized that the determinations of some cells depend on the particular environments of their positions in intermediate patterns and that some genes may act to alter these patterns. A genetically based change in the prepattern could thus indirectly affect the final pattern of differentiated cells....
متن کاملMosaics Involving Aristapedia, a Homeotic Mutant of Drosophila Melanogaster.
A homeotic mutant alters an appendage of a segmental series from its typical form to that of some other member of the series. One mutant usually classified as homeotic is aristapedia (BALKASCHINA 1929), which transforms the arista of the antenna into a tarsus-like structure (Figure 1). Most mutants that have been studied by means of genetic mosaics can be considered late acting in that they app...
متن کاملCreating mosaics in Drosophila.
The ability to create mosaic animals allows the phenotypic analysis of patches of groups of genetically different cells that develop in a wild type environment. In Drosophila, a variety of techniques have been developed over the years to generate mosaics, and in this chapter, I review the techniques that our laboratory has developed. These include the "Dominant Female Sterile" technique which a...
متن کاملEnvironmental Factors Other than Temperature Affecting Facet Number in the Bar-eyed Mutant of Drosophila
In a recent paper the author 1 has undertaken to show the relation between temperature and 'the facet number in the bar-eyed mutant of Drosophila mdanogaster Meig. Since it was essential to know the part played by other environmental factors the experimental evaluation of some of these was carried out. While these experiments were not as critical as was desired, they give some idea as to the re...
