Abstract

Electrophoretic variants of nonspecific esterases (Est-6 and Est-C) of various populations of Drosophila melanogaster and Drosophila simulans from Northern Greece were studied by means of starch gel electrophoresis, and the results are compared with those obtained from standard stocks. Two new alleles of the Est-6 locus of D. melanogaster and two new alleles of the Est-6 locus of D. simulans are described. The position of the Est-C locus in D. simulans is estimated. Evidence is presented for the genetic homology of the Est-C locus of D. melanogaster and the Est-C locus of D. simulans.
