Inversion polymorphisms have occupied a privileged place in Drosophila genetic research since their discovery in the 1920s. Indeed, inversions seem to be nearly ubiquitous, and the majority of species that have been thoroughly surveyed have been found to be polymorphic for one or more chromosomal inversions. Despite enduring interest, however, inversions remain difficult to study because their effects are often cryptic, and few efficient assays have been developed. Even in Drosophila melanogaste ...[more]
