title: Location of an eye mutant in the onion fly Hylemya antiqua Meigen using a pericentric chromosome inversion.
abstract: With the use of a pericentric inversion in chromosome 3, an eye color mutant in the onion fly was located in chromosome 3. No recombination occurs in males; 40.2% recombination was observed in females. This linkage through the male facilitates further cytogenetic research on structural aberrations involving chromosome 3.
