Abstract

Drosophila melanogaster lines previously selected for fast and slow return of female receptivity were used for two different recombination analyses. Major loci affecting the difference between the fast and the slow remating speed map to the right arm of chromosome II to the right ofwelt (wt).

Key Words

Drosophila melanogaster recombination analysis gene localization female receptivity remating
