title: [Induction of single transpositions of mobile genetic elements in Drosophila melanogaster using mitomycin C].
abstract: Intraperitoneal injections of mitomycin C into the males from laboratory strains of Drosophila melanogaster induce several mutation events in different loci of the X-chromosome in the offspring. These mutations are caused by transposition of mobile genetic elements. The transpositions are single and are not associated with transposition explosions.
