TABLE 4.

Gonadal dysgenesis in the grand offspring of F1 hybrids between TP; Birm stocks and a +; Birm stock

TP present in F2 ♀♀
TP absent in F2 ♀♀
Stocka No. of vials No. of ♀♀ % GD + SEb No. of vials No. of ♀♀ % GD + SEb
TP5; Birm (2a) 25 452 6.7 ± 1.9 24 430 81.9 ± 4.9
TP5; Birm (2b) 25 465 6.6 ± 2.0 25 457 77.2 ± 5.6
TP6; Birm (2a) 25 472 0.4 ± 0.3 25 431 63.9 ± 5.7
TP6; Birm (2b) 25 432 0.6 ± 0.4 24 403 95.7 ± 1.5

The TP (w)/+; Birm F1 hybrids were crossed to males from a w; Birm stock (2a in Table 3) and their TP (w)/w; Birm (phenotypically white, TP present) and +/w; Birm (red, TP absent) F2 daughters were then crossed to Harwich males to obtain F3 females, which were scored for GD regardless of eye color.

a

Replicate stocks carrying the same TP are distinguished by the identity tags in parentheses; these tags correspond to the ones given in Table 3.

b

Unweighted mean percentage GD ± standard error.
