Исследование фертильности линии Drosophila melanogaster MS с нарушением контроля транспозиции мобильного элемента gypsy

The flamenco locus is one of the main components of the piRNA pathway of regulation of mobile genetic elements (MGEs) in Drosophila melanogaster. Mutations at this locus lead to an increase in the transposition activity of MGEs and, as a result, to genetic instability. In this paper, the fertility of a genetically unstable MS strain obtained more than 25 years ago and characterized by a mutation in the flamenco locus and the presence of a...
