Routinely used in detection of sex-linked recessive lethals. # Binsc constitution: In(1)sc[S1L]sc[8R]+dl-49, sc[S1] sc[8] B. synthesis: Muller. properties: Male and homozygous female viable and fertile.

Suppresses crossing over in X chromosome. # Biny constitution: In(1)sc[8L]sc[S1R]+dl-49, y[31d] sc[-] v f B. synthesis: Lindsley. references: Lindsley and Edington, 1957, DIS 31: 131-32. Lindsley, Edington, and Von Halle, 1960, Genetics 45: 1649-70. properties: Male lethal because of deficiency for sc. Suppresses crossing over in the X chromosome. Used in the recovery of Y-suppressed, sex-linked, recessive lethals. # C(3)x constitution: Probably In(3L+3R)P. # ClB constitution: In(1)Cl, sc l(1)C t[2] sl B. synthesis: Muller. references: 1928, Genetics 13: 279-357. properties: Male lethal. Suppresses crossing over in X chromosome. Originally used in recovery of sex-linked recessive lethals; largely replaced by Basc for this purpose. # CyO: Curly derivative of Oster constitution: In(2LR)O, dp[lvI] Cy pr cn[2]. synthesis: Oster. synonym:Cy,InsO5. references: 1956, DIS 30: 145. properties: More effective suppresser of crossing over in chromosome 2 than In(2L+2R)Cy; should be superior to SM1 as balancer for chromosome 2. # FM1: First Multiple constitution: In(1)sc[8]+dl-49, y[31d] sc[8] w[a] lz[s] B. synthesis: Schultz and Curry. synonym:complete. references: Lewis and Mislove, 1963, DIS 27: 57-58. properties: Male viable and fertile; homozygous female viable but sterile because of lz[s]. Reduces crossing over in X chromosome. Useful for balancing sex-linked, recessive, sterile or lethal mutations. # FM3 constitution: In(1)FM3, y[31d] sc[8] dm B. synonym:R. F. Grell, 1954. references: Mislove and Lewis, 1954, DIS 28: 77. properties: Male lethal owing to presence of two recessive lethals in In(1)FM3, which may be covered by B[S]Yy[+] or by y[+]Y and B[S]Y. Effectively suppresses crossing over in the X chromosome. Useful for balancing sex-linked, recessive, female-sterile mutants and, in combination with B[S]Yy[+], for balancing sex-linked, recessive, lethal and male-sterile mutants. # FM4 constitution: In(1)FM4, y[31d] sc[8] dm B. synthesis: R. F. Grell, 1954. references: Mislove and Lewis, 1954, DIS 28: 77. properties: Male viable and fertile; homozygous female viable but sterile because of dm. In(1)FM4 is the consequence of the approximate reinversion of In(1)dl-49 in In(1)sc[8]+dl-49 and is similar in sequence to In(1)sc[8] but with the insertion of 3C-4F into 11F. Unless this small transposition has an abnormally large effect on crossing over (e.g., see Dp(2;2)C619) recombination might be expected to be frequent in FM4/+ heterozygotes and practically normal in FM4/In(1)sc[8] heterozygotes. In FM4/+ heterozygotes, double crossover with points of exchange inside or outside the 3C to 11F region should produce euploid X chromosomes, and those with one point of exchange inside and one outside produce complementary duplications and deficiencies for 3C to 4F. The duplication survives in either sex and exhibits a Confluens phenotype (E. H. Grell); the deficiency might survive in the heterozygote as a Notch Minute female judging from the survival of the slightly smaller Df(1)w[m258-44] = Df(1)3C3-4;4D2-E1. Balancing properties not well determined. Some lines carry w[55f] and in some y[31d] replaced with y[+] or B with f or +. # FM6 constitution: In(1)FM6, y[31d] sc[8] dm B. synthesis: R. F. Grell, 55i. references: Grell and Lewis, 1956, DIS 30: 71. properties: Male viable and fertile; homozygous female viable but sterile because of dm. Like FM4 except for the presence of the additional In(1)15D-E;20A-B. Reservations similar to those about the balancing ability of FM4 apply in FM6 to the salivary chromosome region from 1B to 15D. In genotypes with a normal recombination rate, FM6 effectively eliminates recombination in FM6/+ heterozygotes but yields viable recombinants when heterozygous for such inversions as In(1)sc[8]. Used for balancing sex-linked, recessive, lethal and sterile mutations. Does not effectively balance cv or v in stocks that are also heterozygous for In(2LR)SM1 and In(3LR)Ubx[130]. # In(1)dl-49+B[M1] constitution: In(1)dl-49+B[M1], sc v B[M1]. properties: Male and homozygous female viable and fertile.

May be used to balance sex-linked, recessive, lethal or sterile mutations. # In(1)sc[S1]+dl-49 constitution: In(1)sc[S1]+dl-49, sc[S1] v f car. properties: Male viable and fertile; homozygous female viable but sterile because of homozygous In(1)sc[S1]. Reduces crossing over in X chromosome. May be used to balance sex-linked, recessive, lethal or sterile mutations. # Insc constitution: In(1)sc[S1L]sc[8R]+dl-49, sc[S1] sc[8]. synthesis: Muller. properties: Male and homozygous female viable and fertile. Suppresses crossing over in the X chromosome. # Inscy constitution: In(1)sc[S1L]sc[8R]+dl-49, y sc[S1] sc[8]. synthesis: Muller. properties: Male and homozygous female viable and fertile. Crossing over suppressed in X chromosome. # LVM: Balancer of L. V. Morgan constitution: In(3L)P with a lethal in each arm of chromosome 3. # S-5 constitution: In(1)sc[4L]sc[8R]+S, y sc[4] sc[8] w[a] B. synthesis: Lindsley. references: Lindsley and Edington, 1957, DIS 31: 131-32. Lindsley, Edington, and Von Halle, 1960, Genetics 45: 1649-70. properties: Male viable and fertile; homozygous female and X/0 male inviable because of deficiency for bb. Suppresses crossing over in X chromosome. Used in the recovery of Y-suppressed, sex-linked, recessive lethals. # SM1: Second Multiple constitution: In(2LR)SM1, al[2] Cy cn[2] sp[2]. synthesis: R. F. Grell, 1953. references: Lewis and Mislove, 1953, DIS 27: 58. properties: Viability and fertility of heterozygote excellent. Reliable balancer for all of chromosome 2, although there is an occasional double crossover in 2R if X and 3 are heterozygous for inversion. MacIntyre and Wright (1966, DIS 41: 141-42) found no recombination between In(2LR)SM1 and al dp b pr cn c px sp in females that are heterozygous for In(1)sc[8] and In(3LR)Ubx[130]. # SM2 constitution: T(2;3)SM2, al[2] Cy lt[v] cn[2] sp[2]. synthesis: R. F. Grell, 1953. references: Lewis and Mislove, 1953, DIS 27: 58. 1954, DIS 28: 77. properties: Not useful as a balancer. # SM5 constitution: In(2LR)SM5, al[2] Cy lt[v] cn[2] sp[2]. synthesis: R. F. Grell, 1953. references: Mislove and Lewis, 1955, DIS 29: 75. properties: Heterozygote usually has good viability and fertility, although may not be as good as SM1. Most complete balancer for chromosome 2. # TM1: Third Multiple constitution: In(3LR)TM1, Me ri sbd[2]. synthesis: E. B. Lewis. references: 1949, DIS 23: 92. Lewis and Mislove, 1953, DIS 27: 58. properties: Homozygous lethal. Suppresses crossing over in chromosome 3. # TM2 constitution: In(3LR)Ubx[130], Ubx[130] e[s]. synthesis: E. B. Lewis. references: 1952, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S. 38: 953-61. 1952, DIS 26: 66. properties: Homozygous lethal. Eliminates crossing over in chromosome 3 except at the end of the right arm. Does not reliably balance mutations in the vicinity of ca. MacIntyre and Wright (1966, DIS 41: 141-42) observed about 9% double crossing over in the unbroken segment of the left arm from 61C to 74 on the salivary gland chromosome map and 15% recombination between the breakpoint at 96A and ca in In(3LR)Ubx[130], Ubx[130] e/ru h th st cu sr e[s] Pr ca females that were also heterozygous for an X-chromosome inversion behaving like In(1)sc[8] and In(2LR)SM1; no recombination observed in other regions. # TM3 constitution: In(3LR)TM3, y[+] ri p[p] sep bx[34e] e[s]. synthesis: E. B. Lewis, 55g. references: Mitchell, 1958, Cold Spring Harbor Symp. Quant. Biol. 23: 279-90. Lewis, 1960, DIS 34: 51. Tinderholt, 1960, DIS 34: 53-54. properties: Stocks exist in which Ser or Sb and Ser are present. With normal X and 2, all of chromosome 3 is effectively balanced; however, in the presence of FM6 and SM5, crossing over between y[+] and ri (i.e., in 61A2-65E) is appreciable. Double crossovers that separate Sb or Ser from inversion complex are rare, even in presence of FM6 and SM5. # TM6 constitution: In(3LR)TM6, ss[-] bx[34e] e; also exists with Ubx[67b]. synthesis: E. B. Lewis and F. Bacher, 66i. properties: Should effectively balance entire third chromosome but has not been tested. Has unbroken regions with genetic lengths of approximately 10, 15, 20, and 30 units. # winscy constitution: In(1)sc[S1L]sc[8R]+dl-49, y sc[S1] sc[8] w. synthesis: Muller. properties: Male and homozygous female viable and fertile. Suppresses crossing over in X chromosome. ## SPECIAL CHROMOSOMES - COMPOUND ## COMPOUND CHROMOSOMES ## Compound chromosomes are monocentric elements in which the material from one chromosome arm is represented twice; they contain the entire diploid complement for the arm involved. They are designated by the symbol C followed parenthetically by the designation of the involved arm. Gametes of compound-bearing flies generally carry two or no doses of the chromosome arm. Compound-X chromosomes [C(1)'s] exist only in females which, unless special steps are taken, carry a Y chromosome. Such C(1)/Y females produce patroclinous sons that inherit an X from their father and a Y from their mother and also produce matroclinous daughters that inherit two X's from their mother and a Y from their father (so-called non-crisscross inheritance). Compound, autosome-bearing flies usually produce no viable progeny unless crossed to flies carrying compounds for the same arm or arms. Some compounds have arisen repeatedly from certain genotypes; they were studied collectively but not as individual occurrences. In other cases, similar compounds of independent origin were studied individually. Both general classes of compounds and compounds of unique origin are listed. The two chromosome arms comprising a compound may join (1) by attachement of the base of one to the terminus of the other to form an acrocentric chromosome or (2) by attachment of both proximally to a single centromere to form a metacentric; the ends of either an acrocentric or a metacentric may join to form a compound ring. In addition, the component arms may be in the same sequence or one may be entirely inverted with respect to the other. Thus, the elements of a compound may pair as a spiral (the tandem configuration) or as a hairpin (the reversed configuration). Simple compounds may therefore be classified according to the conventions of Novitski (1954, Genetics 39: 127-40) as reversed acrocentrics, tandem metacentrics, and tandem rings; where applicable, this classification was retained and is used in the designation of compounds. When the component arms differ in sequence by something other than whole-arm inversion, the classification tandem or reversed becomes ambiguous. Furthermore, when the component arms are separable from each other by a single break, the terms acrocentric and metacentric are descriptive; however, when elements of the two arms become interspersed (as for example by interarm rearrangements), these terms lose meaning. Consequently, the more-complex compounds are given arbitrary symbols. The chromosomal constitution of compounds in which the chromosome arms remain intact is designated: metacentrics, by the sequences of the component arms separated by a centerpoint (which represents the centromere); acrocentrics, by the sequence of the distal arm separated by an em dash from the sequence of the proximal arm followed by a centerpoint; rings (which are derived from acrocentrics or metacentrics) by origin. In heterozygotes, the gene content of the component arms is listed according to the same conventions, with the genes on the first arm listed in the chromosomal designation followed by those on the second arm. In homozygotes, the genes are listed in chromosome map order. Complete designation of a compound includes its symbol, its chromosomal constitution, and the gene content of its component arms; e.g., C(1)TM2, + .In(1)sc[4L]EN[R], y cv v sd.y sn g. It should be emphasized that the heterozygous gene content of compounds is often highly unstable owing to homozygosis and changes in coupling relations resulting from exchange. In compounds in which elements of the component arms have become interspersed, it is usually not feasible to designate the chromosomal constitution in terms of the component arms; rather, it is described in terms of the order of chromosome segments as seen in salivary-gland chromosomes. In heterozygotes, the gene content is listed in such a way as to indicate which genes were originally in the different component arms. # # .=: see C(1)RM # :=: see C(1)DX # 2L2L: see C(2L)RM # 2R2R: see C(2R)RM # 3L3L: see C(3L)RM # 3R3R: see C(3R)RM # C(1)94-2A constitution: Homozygous for y; originally heterozygous for cv, sn, v, g, and sd. Ring shaped in mitotic metaphase. Salivary chromosome analysis shows order to be |1A - 5E|1F - 1A.20 - 5E|1F - 20|. origin:Spontaneous (although possibly X ray induced premeiotically) derivative of C(1)TR94-2. Apparently arose through an asymmetrical or reversed exchange between the 1F region near the centromere and the 5E region near the interstitial heterochromatin of C(1)TR94-2. synthesis: Rosenfeld, 1964. properties: Crossing over in region 1F-6A produces a single ring carrying In(1)94-2A = In(1)1F-2A;5E-6A. Reversibly convertible to other double-ring configurations by other types of exchange (e.g., Novitski and Braver, 1954, Genetics 39: 197-209). # C(1)A: Compound (1) of Armentrout constitution: Homozygous for y and probably originally heterozygous for cv, sn, v, g, and sd. Ring shaped in mitotic metaphase.

Apparently arose by a process describable as reversed crossing over in region 6F2-7A1. synthesis: Armentrout, 1964. properties: An apparently completely stable, compound-ring-X chromosome; cannot produce single-X chromosome derivative by heterochromatic exchange. Should be the best of all compound-X chromosomes for stock purposes. # C(1)DX: Compound (1) Double X constitution: C(1)DX, In(1)dl-49 - In(1)sc[8.], y f - y[-] sc[8] f.. origin:X ray induced in In(1)dl-49, y w f/In(1) sc[8] sc[8] B female [stated by Muller to have been In(1)dl-49/In(1)sc[8L]y[3PR], but the derivative does not carry y[3P]]. Was originally y w f - y[-] sc[8] B., but by double exchange f became homozygous and B was lost. synthesis: Muller. synonym:The symbol :=. references: 1943, DIS 17: 61-62. Valencia, Muller, and Valencia, 1949, DIS 23: 99-102. properties: A reversed acrocentric heterozygous for In(1)dl-49; it is useful in balancing because it is very stable, which is probably due to little interstitial heterochromatin. y w f detachments very rarely produced. Also produces a low incidence of homozygosis for w. C(1)DX/0 lethal; probably deficient for bb. # C(1)M2: Compound (1) Multiple constitution: C(1)M2, In(1)sc[7]+AM - In(1)FM4., sc[7] - y[-] sc[8] dm B.. origin:X-ray-induced exchange between the proximal heterochromatin of In(1)sc[7]+AM and the distal heterochromatin of In(1)FM4. synthesis: Lewis, 54h. synonym:FMA2: First Multiple Attached. references: 1958, DIS 32: 81. # C(1)M3 constitution: C(1)M3, In(1)AM - In(1)FM4.,y[2] - y[-] sc[8] dm B.. origin:Recombinant between In(1)sc[7]+AM element of C(1)M2 and In(1)AM, y[2] in triploid. synthesis: E.

Can exist in a number of different configurations interconvertible by crossing over. Generates single rings at different frequencies, depending on configuration of the compound. # C(1)RA: Compound (1) Reversed Acrocentric constitution: C(1)RA, + - In(1)sc[8.]. origin:Spontaneous from X.Y[L]/In(1)sc[8] either by exchange between the proximal heterochromatin of X.Y[L] and the distal heterochromatin of In(1)sc[8] or, more likely, by sister-strand union in one of the heterochromatic segments followed by a normal euchromatic exchange. A frequently recurring event that seems to require the presence of Y[L]. synthesis: Novitski. synonym:RA. references: Novitski, 1954, Genetics 39: 127-40. Sandler, 1954, Genetics 39: 923-42. 1958, Cold Spring Harbor Symp. Quant. Biol. 23: 211-23. properties: Yields frequent detachments resulting from exchange between the Y chromosome and the interstitial heterochromatin of the reversed acrocentric. Tetrad distribution usually quite abnormal; one-exchange tetrads infrequent and no- and two-exchange tetrads frequent. Exchange frequency increased by addition of Y or y[+]Y[L], but tetrad distribution remains abnormal (Sandler, 1954). Y[L] appended as a second arm to C(1)RA normalizes tetrad distribution (Sandler, 1958). # C(1)RA60g constitution: C(1)RA60g, + - In(1)sc[8]. origin:A spontaneous exchange between distally-located heterochromatin of In(1)sc[8] and proximally-located heterochromatin of a normal X.

Recurs regularly by exchange between heterochromatin of the short arm of one X, X.Y[S], or X.Y[L] and that of the base of the long arm of a sister or homolog. synthesis: L. V.

Naturalist 72: 434-46. properties: Recombination with the Y chromosome leads to detachments with a frequency of about 10[-3] in C(1)RM/Y females. Has been extensively used in studies of crossing over (e.g., Anderson, 1925, Genetics 10: 403-17; Beadle and Emerson, 1935, Genetics 20: 192-206; Welshons, 1955, Genetics 40: 918-36). # C(1)RR1: Compound (1) Reversed Ring constitution: C(1)RR1, + - In(1)EN, y[-] sc[-] - y; two X chromosomes attached by their normally distal ends to a common centromere and by their normally proximal ends to each other.

Such X-Y combinations are composed of the X, a centromere (derived from either X or Y), and either Y[L] or Y[S] or both. In the designation of such chromosomes, the component elements are listed in order such that X precedes the centromere (symbolized by a centerpoint), e.g., Y[S]X.Y[L]. Events that give rise to X-Y attachments are usually recurring so that the same combinations arise repeatedly; however, since the exact points of exchange differ, independent occurrence of similar combinations certainly differ from one another in heterochromatic content. Because similar X-Y combinations of independent origin are not ordinarily designated, studied, or maintained as different chromosomes and because for most purposes, it is not important that they be distinguished, general categories of X-Y combinations are largely described in the ensuing section. Where a specific combination has been studied, it is listed with the designation of its component elements followed immediately by its specific designation, e.g., X.Y[L]C2. The complete designation of an X-Y combination consists of the following items in the order given: chromosomal elements, sequence of the X chromosome (if other than normal), gene content. X-Y combinations that differ from one another only with respect to mutant genes or euchromatic inversions are not described separately because it is considered that such mutants and inversions can be removed from or inserted into the component X by euchromatic exchange. When X's differ by an inversion with at least one heterochromatic breakpoint, the chromosomes are described separately because they must differ in their heterochromatic constitution. # FR1: see Y[S]X. # Fragment 1: see Y[S]X. # sc[8] c.o.

Exists without the y[+] marker at the terminus of the Y[L] arm; also exists with various combinations of sex-linked markers. ## SPECIAL CHROMOSOMES - Y DERIVATIVES ## Y DERIVATIVES ## The Y chromosome consists of a long arm (Y[L]) and a short arm (Y[S]); the long arm is arbitrarily taken as the left arm. There are two general categories of special Y chromosomes: Y fragments and marked-Y chromosomes; in addition, there are marked-Y fragments. Y fragments are symbolized either Y[L] or Y[S] plus necessary distinguishing notation, e.g., Y[S]8. The Y chromosome may be marked by mutating the genetically-demonstrable elements of the Y or by translocating normal or mutant alleles from other parts of the complement to the Y chromosome. Marked-Y chromosomes are symbolized by combining, without intervening punctuation, the symbol for the normal or mutant gene of primary marker intent with the symbol Y. If the marker is in the long arm, its symbol precedes Y (e.g., y[+]Y); if it is in the short arm, its symbol follows Y (e.g., Ybb). Symbols for marked fragments combine the symbol for the appropriate Y arm with that for the marker gene, listed in order. These notations are separated by a centerpoint when the centromere lies between them (e.g., Y[L].sc[S1]); otherwise they are not separated by punctuation (e.g., y[+]Y[L]). The long arm of the Y carries a complex of male fertility factors, KL, and the short arm carries a normal allele of bb proximally and a complex of male fertility factors, KS, distally. The genetic constitution of the Y chromosome may be designated by listing the above components and the centromere in order from left to right, KL.bb[+]KS. The constitution of a Y fragment is described in a similar manner. The genetic constitution of a marker segment is designated by listing the symbols of the most widely separated loci known to be included in it separated by an em dash, e.g., bw[+] - ba[+]. The constitution of a marked-Y or Y fragment may be designated by listing its genetic elements in order with any ambiguities in order enclosed within parentheses, e.g., KL(bw[+] - ba[+]).bb[+]KS. When there is a hierarchy of ambiguities in order, a hierarchy of parentheses is used, as in ((ci[+] - spa[+])KL).bb[+]KS. # 4Y constitution: ((ci[+] - spa[+])KL).bb[+]KS; tentative. origin:X ray induced. synthesis: Edmondson, 1946. synonym:Tp4.Y: Transposition 4.Y. references: Muller and Edmondson, 1957, DIS 31: 140-41. properties: Contains all known loci of chromosome 4 linked to the Y chromosome. Results from recombination between 4Y and Y[S]X.Y[L] suggest that 4 is inserted into or appended to Y[L]. Two doses of this chromosome in the absence of any other Y- or 4-derived material produce viable and fertile flies of both sexes. # B[S]w[+]y[+]Y constitution: B[S] pdf[+] su(f)[+] kz[+] - spl[+] y[+] ac[+] KL.bb[+] KS; inferred from origin. origin:X-ray-induced deletion of majority of euchromatin (dm[+] through mal[+]) from the recombinant composed of left end of Y[D]X[P] element of T(1;Y)148 = T(1;Y)2D;Y[L], which involves B[S]Y, and right end of XY[L].Y[S]129-16, which carries y[+] from y[+]Y between X and Y[L]. synthesis: Nicoletti. references: Brosseau, Nicoletti, Grell, and Lindsley, 1961, Genetics 46: 339-46. properties: Meiotic behavior and viability apparently normal.

Since Y[L] appears to be as long as X in metaphase (Hannah), some heterochromatin derived from In(1)sc[8] must be carried distally on Y[L]. Detachment studies show that bb[+] from In(1)sc[8] has not been transferred to Y[L] (Parker). Has dominant Hw effect that produces one or more humeral hairs in X/y[+]Y male and X/X/y[+]Y female and one or more hairs in second and third posterior cells of wing of X/y[+]Y/y[+]Y male (Schultz). # y[+]Yms constitution: l(1)J1[+] - ac[+] KL.bb[+] ms(Y)S. origin:X-ray-induced derivative of y[+]Y. synthesis: Brosseau. references: 1960, Genetics 45: 257-74. properties: A series of y[+]Y chromosomes that carry a male-sterilizing mutant in KS, e.g., y[+]Yms2 carries ms(Y)S2.
