Puffing activity after a heat shock in Musca domestica L.
Changes in puffing pattern after heat shock in Musca domestica were studied during the prepupal stage. Eight puffs which normally do not appear during development, were detected. One was found on chromosome X, one on chromosome III, two on chromosome IV and four on chromosome VI. Most of the observed puffs were large and had a complex structure characterized by visible granules.
