| Abstract |
Trisomy of the small, fourth chromosome is common in Drosophila melanogaster stocks. Even though the presence of an extra chromosome can confound the interpretation of experimental crosses, many Drosophila geneticists are unaware of this potential problem. Here I describe a simple method employing a mutation in a haploinsufficient gene to recognize fourth chromosome trisomy and establish disomic stocks from trisomic stocks.
