Chromosome Inversions

Drosophila melanogaster from 67 collections have been analysed for their polymorphic inversions. Of the 53 inversions now known in this species 7 are widespread and 43 are endemic. The remaining 3 inversions may be widespread, but if so they are usually very rare. No X or fourth chromosome inversions were found. All the third chromosome inversions were paracentric, while six of the second chromosome inversions were pericentric. No inversions were found in D. simulans , of which 27 collections, from Africa, Europe, Australia and S. America, were studied.

ABSTRACTWe have developed and validated two new fluorescence-based PCR assays to detect theWolbachia wMel strain inAedes aegyptiand thewRi andwAu strains inDrosophila simulans. The new assays are accurate, informative, and cost-efficient for large-scaleWolbachiascreening.
