title: Localization of genes coding for biochemical traits on the second chromosome of Drosophila imeretensis Sokolov (D. littoralis Meigen).
abstract: We have investigated 13 alleles of four genes coding for acid phosphatase, alpha- and beta-esterases, and malic enzyme. The genes were localized and their positions regarding the centromere are as follows: Acph-1--centromere--Me--cu--dt--alpha-Est--[Inversion 2t]--beta-Est. The occurrence of crossing over in Drosophila imeretensis males, as well as the tetrameric structure of malic enzyme, was confirmed.
