Puff activity after heat shock in two species of theDrosophila obscura group
1987
When individuals of Drosophila guanche are submitted to heat shock, five new puffs are induced. These puffs usually do not appear during normal development. Comparing these results with those obtained in Drosophila subobscura, also belonging to the obscura group, differences between the induced puffing pattern of both species have been found.
The banding pattern of polytene chromosomes of Drosophila guanche compared with that of D. subobscura.
1987
A detailed map of the salivary gland chromosomes of Drosophila guanche is presented and compared to the standard gene arrangements of D. subobscura. Generally, the polytene chromosomc banding patterns of the two species show a high degrce of homology. Only Segment I of the sex chromosome (Chromosome A) shows marked differences. The banding pattern proposed for this segment in D. guanche could have originated from a cluster of overlapping inversions including A1 arrangement.
