ABSTRACT The recovery of the SD chromosome from a heterozygous SD male increases with brood. This is independent of the age of the female, occurs during the time the sperm are stored in the females, disappears when the segregation distortion is suppressed, and is temperature-sensitive-temperature shocks above or below 25°C applied to the mature sperm both tend to accelerate the increase in the recovery of SD. All this suggests the existence of a class of sperm affected by SD in which the sperm are able to fertilize eggs for a short time following ejaculation but become dysfunctional thereafter.

A number of female sterile mutations on the first and third chromosomes of Drosophila melanogaster have been screened for defects in the yolk proteins using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Two new mutants were identified. 6m45 accumulates all three yolk proteins (YP1, YP2 and YP3) in the haemolymph but they are all absent from the ovaries suggesting it is a yolk-protein-uptake mutant. In contrast, 1163 is a temperature-sensitive mutation with a large reduction in the quantity of YP1 in the haemolymph and ovaries at 29 °C. Both mutants are autonomous in ovary transplant experiments.

Sensitive Allele

A new allele of the suppressor of forked [su(f)] mutation in Drosophila melanogaster has been found and designated 1(1)su(f)ts76a. It is temperature-sensitive for suppression of forked (f) and has additional temperature-sensitive phenotypes of lethality, female sterility, and abnormal bristle formation at 29 °C. It closely resembles two other conditional alleles of su(f), 1(1)su(f)ts67g and 1(1)ts726. Female sterility at 29 °C is characterized by both disorganized egg chambers in the ovarioles and also chorion-deficient oocytes. Both of these abnormalities may be the result of premature follicle cell death. The observations on 1(1)su(f)ts76a are consistent with the proposal that the similar allele, 1(1)ts726, is a cell-lethal mutation specifically affecting mitotically active cells.
