Line 5 shows the numbers for the offspring of heterozygous hermaphrodites carrying a balancer chromosome with an expected Mendelian frequency of 25% for homozygous mutants. Preselection of homozygous larvae by lack of balancer chromosome leads to indistinguishable results. Experimental spread is indicated as SEM.
