ANNOUNCEMENTS
Materials Available: Over the course of many years I have accumulated a sizeable reprint collection and to this has been added (through the kindness of Mrs. A.H. Sturtevant a few years ago), those reprints of Professor A.H. Sturtevant which were duplicated in the Morgan collection at Cal Tech. The total collection consists of approximately 10 four-drawer filing cabinets. Although this colection contains a sizeable proportion that are found in some common journals, such as Genetics, there are also many which are not found in usual journals and which extend back into the period of 1910 on. I would be interested in learning if any Drosophila laboratory would consider this collection to be a useful addition to their present files. The only cost involved would be that of shipment of the reprints to that Institution. -- E. Novitski, Eugene, Oregon.
Bibliography on Drosophila - Final Section Completed: Prof. Irwin H. Herskowitz, Hunter College, New York, has announced that Part Eight: Section Two (in this issue) will be his last contribution to the Bibliography project. Our thanks to Prof. Herskowitz for his long and lasting contribution to Drosophila workers.
DROSOPHILA DIRECTORY: Since the last publication of the Directory, there has not been enough of a response to warrant republication in this issue. It has been decided to attempt to contact all the Drosophila laboratories by individual letter during this coming year asking them to update their Directory information. In this way we hope to offer a very current Directory in DIS 60 (June 1984). The deadline will be April 15, 1984, for publication.
Editorial Assistant, Marilyn Teeter, resigned her position with D.I.S. here in Lawrence as of June this year. She is receiving her M.A. in Biological Sciences (Entomology) and accepting a new position in Madison, Wisconsin, where she will be writing and producing public radio science broadcasts. She began working for D.I.S. in 1979 when Prof. Phil Hedrick took over editorship of the journal. Many thanks to Marilyn for her long hours and tireless contribution to D.I.S. Gil Philips, a professional technical typist and linguistics major at Kansas University, assumed her duties this summer with the publication of D.I.S. 59. vi - DIS 59 24th ANNUAL DROSOPHILA CONFERENCE October 1983

CLONE LIST
Drosophila DNA clones by chromosome location.
Report of Dr. John Merriam University of California Los Angeles, California, USA
The cytological map of cloned DNA in D.melanogaster is a project initiated for the 24th Annual Drosophila Research Conference, held at Asilomar, Califor- nia, on March 17-20, 1983. Information on the locations of cloned uniqued sequences was solicited as part of the registration for contributed papers; a request was made at the meeting and in subsequent mailings to contributors for corrections and additions to the list by June 1, 1983. Some additions to the list were made haphazardly on the basis of published information. An implication made throughout the formation of the list is that locations have been identified by in situ hybridization. No attempt has been made to include information on dispersed repeated gene families such as copia, 412, 297 or other transposable elements which have been reviewed by Spradling and Rubin in the Ann. Rev. Genet. 15: 219 (1981).
At this time the list is incomplete and must be regarded as tentative: Additional locations are continually determined; some of the information may be misquoted and therefore incorrect. There are some clear omissions of infor- mation, particularly as the European laboratories are less well cited than they should be. It is hoped that all or most of these additions and corrections can be made to the author in time to construct a more accurate and complete revision. Nevertheless, it is worthwhile to circulate now the available infor- mation, both to demonstrate the explosive progress of Drosophila work and as a guide for cloning or walking in regions of interest.
In some locations the relevant gene products or identified loci are named. However, this listing is much less complete than the information compiled by Doane and Treat-Clemons, "Biochemical loci of the fruit fly" DIS 58:41 (1982) which should be consulted for gene symbols, map locations and additional references.

Both sets now of lethals were studied for allelism and some of 080 them were localized. 33 ME The mutagenic effect both of various viruses non-infectious for Droso- 07 000 phila and foreign DNA is characterized by strong I6 L site-specificity.

The mutations 37 occur in definite groups 47 L of loci specific for each I7 58 agent tested (Alexandrov et al. 1971; Gershenson 29-X et al. 1975). The chro- 42 mosomes with lethal de- fects in many sites 08 02 L_ II1UiL1ielLLa.L) appear 33 regularly (for example, 36 see Fig. 1).

Electron micro- gene in question, have, as a rule, small (from scopy of "salt-and-pepper" variegation 1-2 to 8-10 facets) and occasionally arising induced by 1,4-bisdiasoacetyl butane spots showing a maroon-like appearance (Alexan- in white mutants of D. melanogaster. drov 1982). This kind of variegation seems to look like the so-called "salt-and-pepper" type (Becker 1966). EM analysis of mosaic spots was carried out to test the assumption that variegation described may be hemomorphosis of some kind rather than expected phenotypic reflection of rare w -- w+ reversions induced by DAB in the somatic cells of the eye discs. If the spots are true reversions expected, they must consist of ommatidia pigment cells with restored ommochrome and/or drosoptrin granules. For the electron microscopy, dissected mosaic eyes were fixed in cold Karnovsky's mix- ture, post-fixed in 2% 0s04, dehydrated and embedded in Epon. Ultrathin sections were stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate, and photographed in a JEM-5y electron microscope at 80 W. Analysis of electron micrographs of the typical DAB-induced spots showed that instead of the expected ultrastructural signs of reversion and usual EM picture intrinsic to ommatidia of white mutants (Fuge 1967), marked atypical changes in the cornea, pseudoconus and pigment cells in the region of spots were consistently found. In all cases, the laminated structure of the cornea was loosened throughout its thickness (or in the lower part only) and substi- tuted by irregular bundles of fibrils, along which large numbers of lysosome- and/or vacuole- like membrane-coated structures were found (Fig. 1). As a rule, such changed cornea was closely connected with electron- dense granular masses which re- place structures of pseudoconus (Fig. 2). The masses were usually surrounded by fibrils which may fill up the rest of the inner pseudoconus space. In such cases, cytoplasmic organelles are lacking, except - - - V V numerous protein granules, within primary and secondary -______ pigment cells (Fig. 3). Special TA" - V attention was drawn to the fact - --- - that generally neither otnmo- V chrome nor drosopterin granules within. pigment cells were found
