| Popis: |
Two radiation-induced pericentric inversions on chromosome 3 in Anopheles albimanus Wiedemann have been established in homozygous stocks. In(3)17 and In(3)22 cover about 82% and 42%, respectively, of chromosome 3 and should be very useful as crossover suppressors in genetic crosses. In addition, three double-heterozygote stocks were established by combining inversions that had similar breakpoints but were viable only as heterozygotes. These balanced-lethal double heterozygotes can serve as a source of inversion gametes for use in experimental crosses and can be used in surveying populations for lethal chromosomes. Assays of the partial sterility inherent in males heterozygous for a pericentric inversion and a male-linked translocation indicated that the combination of inversions and translocations could be used in genetic control schemes. |
