چکیده

84 per cent albite and we know enough of relations in our general system (Fig. 1) to be able to say that the conditions are similar in mixtures with an excess of silica (simplified fayalite-rhyolites) and also in those with a deficiency of silica (simplified fayalite-phonolites). While we have made only a first step in the investigation of these extreme liquids it is plain from the results of this study that the moderate content of iron silicates in rocks rich in alkali feldspars cannot be urged as a feature militating against the acceptance of the rocks as substantially representative of the residual liquids from the fractional-crystallion of more complex "basic" magmas.

The Frequency of Lethals in Crossover and Noncrossover Second Chromosomes of Drosophila Melanogaster.

T has long been known in different species that some individuals carry lethals I even though they were descended from lethal-free ancestors. These lethals usually have originated by mutation at various loci. There exists, however, a second possible source for new lethals. Since individuals in a population are heterozygous for a large array of loci, recombination, it has been argued, might give ...

Experiments on Mutations Induced by Neutrons in Drosophila Melanogaster Sperms.

WO somewhat puzzling phenomena have been reported in the literature T on neutron-induced lethals in Drosophila. NAGAI and LOCHER (1938), in the first work on this subject, kept the offspring of different neutron-treated males separate during the tests for sex-linked lethals and reported that the lethals were not distributed a t random among the offspring of different males. Two or more lethals ...

Genetic damage at specific gene loci in Drosophila with betatron X-rays.

The mutation rate was determined for mature sperm at eight specific gene loci on the third chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster using the low ion density radiations of 22 Mev betatron X-rays. A dose of 3000 rads of betatron X-rays produced a mutation rate of 4.36 X 10(-8) per rad/locus. Among the mutations observed, 66% were recessive lethals and 34% viable when homozygous. Only one of the 24 ...

The Nature of Lethals in Drosophzla Wzllzstonz]

is well established that Mendelian populations carry a large amount of con‘:ealed variability. Chromosomes which are lethal when homozygous constitute an important part of the concealed variability in cross-breeding populations as shown, among others, by PAVAN et al. (1951) in Drosophila willistoni. Recessive lethal second chromosomes had a mean frequency of .286 in seven Brazilian populations ...

Clan lethals and inter-year allelism in Death Valley Drosophila pseudoobscura.

A chromosome 2 lethal allelism rate of about 3% found in the 1974 population of D. pseudoobscura in Death Valley, California. This rate was significantly higher than allelism rates in other Southern California populations. The Death Valley population was sampled again in 1975 and 1977, with allelism rates of 1% and 0.5%, respectively. In 1974, several lethals were in high frequencies (about 1%)...

Female Fecundity of Drosophila Melanogaster Second Chromosome Recessive Lethal Heterozygotes in Homozygous and Heterozygous Genetic Background.

Received August 26. 1964 A large number of both spontaneous and induced second chromosome recessive lethals in Drosophila melanogaster have been reported. Almost of all these lethals are rather rapidly eliminated from populations under random mating conditions. IVES (1945) and WALLACE (1950) have estimated the number of second chromosome loci of lethal genes as 495 and 400, respectively. Some l...
