Increasing the multiplicity of ribosomal RNA genes in Drosophila melanogaster.

K D Tartof.   

Abstract

In wild-type Drosophila melanogaster females there are about 250 ribosomal RNA genes in each nucleolus organizer region of the two X chromosomes. When this same nucleolus organizer region is present in flies in only a single dose, the number of ribosomal RNA genes increases to approximately 400. This increase is most easily explained by disproportionate replication of these genes.
