Genetics of Organisms (Drosophila)
Objectives:
• Learn the life cycle for Drosophila melanogaster
(egg-larval-pupal-adult)
• Distinguish between male & female flies
• Study & examine mutational characteristics of:
Eye color (sepia-brown: ss vs. wild type: red SS)
# Bristles
Wing size (long vs short)
Antennae size (vestigial vs. normal
• Examine THREE genetic crosses:
-Monohybrid: ss (sepia) x SS (normal-red)
-Dihybrid: Normal eyes, vestigial wings x sepia, normal wings
SSvv x ssVV
-Sex-Linked: white eyed female x Normal red-eyed male
XrXr x XRy
Why use Drosophila???
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Simple food requirements
Occupies little space
Hardy (survives well)
Completes life cycle around 12 days (temp)
Produces large numbers of offspring
Easily immobilized (chilling on ice) to examine
Several hereditary variations
Small # of GIANT chromosomes (four pairs)
Chromosomes easily located in the salivary gland
cells
Key Factors of this Lab
• The flies live for about a month
• Females will store up sperm in her
receptacles & can continue to fertilize
eggs
• Virgins must be separated from males
early on (distinguishing males & females)
• Temperature is the most important factor
that determines the length of life cycle
Distinguishing between Male &
Females
Males
– smaller
– Dark, blunt abdomen
– Sex comb on forelimb
Females
– Larger
– Lighter pointed abdomen (ovipositer)
– Transverse stripes on abdomen
– No sex comb

Assume that the following Data was obtained and determine if it is
significant by calculating a Chi-Square value. Do this in the margin space
available on pg 82. Remember to calculate the expected (theoretical)
values from the cross that produced the results above. The cross is written
below.

Sometimes there could be fewer red-eyed individuals
than expected and more individuals with sepia eyes.

The mutation will be Autosomal
The mutation will be recessive
