The Phenogenetics of a Super-Suppressor in Drosophila Melanogaster II. Suppression and Back-Mutation

Abstract

Thirteen X-ray-induced and three spontaneous back-mutations of SCI together with two reversions of y2 were examined in various combinations with the extra-bristle mutant pydV and SU(HW)2. Although SCI and y2 are both able to be suppressed by su(Hw)2 only one SCI reversion showed any response to su(Hw)2.
