title: Lack of dosage compensation for an autosomal gene relocated to the X chromosome in Drosophila melanogaster.
abstract: Aldehyde oxidase activity has been measured in flies with the structural gene for this enzyme translocated to the X chromosome. These measurements are presented as experimental evidence that, in Drosophila melanogaster, an autosomal gene relocated to the X chromosome is not dosage compensated.
