[Interaction of the homoeotic mutations aristapedia and polycomb during ontogenesis of Drosophila melanogaster].
The manifestation of 5 alleles of aristapedia and 2 alleles of Polycomb was studied in initial stocks and in flies of Pc ssa/+ssa genotype. Mutual enhancement of homoeotic effects of ssa and Pc genes was observed. Differences in intergenic interaction were aristapedia, rather than Polycomb specific. Possible role of homoeotic mutations as mutations of regulatory genes and the bearing of the data on their interaction on the results of clonal analysis of homoeosis are discussed.
