MUTATION RATES AT SPECIFIC LOCI IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER. Period Covered: November 1960 through April 1961. Supplementary Report for March and April 1961

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4780949
Progress is reported in studies on the genetic effects of x radiation in Drosophila. Data are presented on radiation damage, as measured by mutation rates at specific visible autosomal loci, of male germ cells of two species of Drosophila. Emphasis was placed on the comparative mutation rates of gametes in different stages of maturation at the time of radiation exposure. (C.H.)
