Chromosome maps were made of Drosophila gibberosa salivary gland
and fat body chromosomes, and the puffing patterns were compared in
the two tissues for selected times in development. The times were
early third instar (E), late third instar (0, at pupariation
(0 hr), at two hours (2 hr), four hours...
The effect of X-irradiation on DNA synthesis in larval salivary
glands of Drosophila hydei was studied using the technique of liquid
scintillation spectrometry and autoradiography. DNA synthesis in
salivary glands of synchronized larvae was measured at successive
stages of third instar development by in vitro uptake of ³H-thymidine
for a...
