A maternal effect in homozygous mei-9a mei-41D5 repair deficient Drosophila melanogaster females influencing the recovery rate of progeny bearing a Y chromosome. 1980

S Zimmering, and S F Cooper

Evidence is presented supporting the suggestion that homozygosity for the repair-deficient mutants mei-9a mei-41D5 is associated with a maternal effect which affects detrimentally the recovery rate of Y chromosome-bearing offspring.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.

D012730 Sex Chromosomes The homologous chromosomes that are dissimilar in the heterogametic sex. There are the X CHROMOSOME, the Y CHROMOSOME, and the W, Z chromosomes (in animals in which the female is the heterogametic sex (the silkworm moth Bombyx mori, for example)). In such cases the W chromosome is the female-determining and the male is ZZ.
