The polytene chromosomes in the fat body nuclei of Drosophila melanogaster.
A photo-map of the polytene chromosomes of fat body nuclei from third instar larvae of Drosophila melanogaster has been constructed and keyed to the revised salivary gland maps of Bridges (1938), Bridges and Bridges (1939) and Bridges (1941 a, b, 1942). Apparent variations in banding pattern are discussed in the light of current studies on polytene chromosome structure and function.
