Semidominant, optic morphology (Om) mutants in Drosophila ananassae have been genetically mapped to at least 25 loci throughout the genome (Hinton, 1984; 1988). Among them, four X-linked Om mutants were proved to be associated with the insertion of a transposable element, tom (Shrimpton et al., 1986; Tanda et al., 1988). In the present study, cytological mapping of autosomal Om mutants was carried out by in situ hybridization to polytene chromosomes using a cloned tom element as a probe. The cytological site for each autosomal Om mutant has been determined to a single band of the salivary gland chromosomes.
在果蝇中,半显性的视觉形态(Om)突变体已通过遗传学方法定位到整个基因组中的至少25个位点(辛顿,1984年;1988年)。其中,四个X连锁的Om突变体被证明与转座因子tom的插入有关(施林普顿等人,1986年;田田等人,1988年)。在本研究中,使用克隆的tom元件作为探针,通过对多线染色体进行原位杂交,对常染色体Om突变体进行了细胞学定位。每个常染色体Om突变体的细胞学位点已确定在唾液腺染色体的单个条带上。
