Summary

An inversion within the subterminal inversion in 2L ofDrosophila ananassae has been detected in a laboratory strain originating from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The break points of inversion have been located in the reference map of salivary chromosomes. The data on the frequencies of different karyotypes indicate that inversion heterozygotes exhibit heterosis.
