Abstract

Genetic and developmental studies of wingless (wg1), a new second chromosome recessive mutation in Drosophila melanogaster, have shown that it affects not only wing and haltere development (giving rise to wingless and/or halterless flies), but also results in various abnormalities of the mesothorax. The larvae destined to develop into wingless and/or halterless flies possessed underdeveloped mesothoracic and/or metathoracic imaginal discs.
