THE EFFECTS OF GLUCOSAMINE HYDROCHLORIDE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER

Abnormal pupae were obtained after feeding glucosamine hydrochloride to larvae from two stocks of Drosophila melanogaster, the Ore-R wild type strain and the mutant melanotic strain, tuw. The characteristic feature of the abnormality was the position of the head within the thorax, thus suggesting the use of glucosamine hydrochloride as a phenocopic agent to produce individuals resembling the recessive lethal cryptocephal.
