Abstract
THE solution of the problem of the phylogeny of the Drosophila species requires, in addition to a comparison of the structure of the chromosome in the salivary gland nuclei of related species, also a study of the spontaneous chromosome aberrations. Dubinin, Sokolov, Tiniakov1 have found a large number of highly concentrated inversions in autosomes in populations of D. melanogaster and D. funebris taken from different places, but they have found no inversions in the X-chromosome, nor no translocations and no deficiencies.
