Histone gene multiplicity and position-effect variegation in Drosophila melanogaster

The effect of altered histone gene multiplicity on chromatin structure was assayed by measuring changes in gene activity associated with position-effect variegation. Heterozygous deficiencies of the histone gene cluster of Drosophila melanogaster increased the proportion of cells within a tissue in...
