title: [Change in the system of wing venation of Drosophila melanogaster under heat shock and selection].
abstract: A change in the system of wing venation of Drosophila melanogaster appeared in response to heat shock and positive selection pressure directed to restoring the normal formation of wing radial vein, L2, that had been violated earlier by the recessive mutation of radius incompletes. Positive selection was effective, L2 having been formed correctly and completely to 35 generation. Besides, (+)-selection was accompanied by appearance of a small fragment of an additional vein at the wing tip. Selection directed to increase of size of this fragment resulted in the sufficient changes in the system of wing venation as a whole. It is suggested that, during evolution, transformation of wing venation of Drosophila was effected by the change of the way of prepattern realization, whereas the cells of wing plate continued to allow the formation of veins practically over a whole area.
