Popis:	A method is described for the production of mosaic flies with tissues hemizygous for sex-linked recessive lethals. Our investigation deals with the mutant, lethal(1) melanoma-like (lml, 1-1.0). Individuals with patches hemizygous for this sex-linked lethal are viable, but it was observed that these areas were much smaller than mosaic parts in gynanders of the control class. It therefore appears that lml does not act as a cell-lethal but that its deleterious effects prevent the animal from reaching the imaginal stage if sizeable areas are under the influence of this gene.
