title: Retrotransposon Gypsy and genetic instability in Drosophila (review).
abstract: The laboratory mutator strain (MS) has properties which can be characterized as genetic instability. It exhibits the high level of gypsy autonomous transposition in somatic and germ cells. This paper summarizes all the data concerning this system and gypsy itself that has been obtained in our works during the last years.
