    Notes: Summary The mutationsvestigial (vg; recessive) andUltravestigial (vg U; dominant) ofDrosophila melanogaster give rise to identical mutant adult phenotypes in which much of the cases this results from cell death in the presumptive wing margin of the wing disc in the third larval instar, but the process of cell degeneration is quite different in the two mutants. Invg cell death occurs continuously throughout the third larval instar, while invg U it occurs only in the early third instar. Cells fragment and some of the fragments condense, becoming electron dense (“apoptosis”). Both condensed and ultrastructurally normal cell fragments are extruded to the basal side of thevg disc epithelium. They accumulate under the basal lamina in the wing pouch area until they are phagocytosed by blood cells entering the wing pouch during the six hours following pupariation. Fragments are not extruded from thevg U epithelium but are apparently phagocytosed by neighboring epithelial cells. The basal lamina undergoes mophological changes following pupariation and is phagocytosed by blood cells in both wild-type andvestigial, but investigial the degenerated cell fragments are also engulfed by the same blood cells.

    Notes: The numbers of primary spermatocytes within cysts as well as numbers of postmeiotic spermatids in bundles in Drosophila hydei were determined. Within the contents of a single testis the cysts of primary spermatocytes are found to contain 5-11 germ cells. Furthermore, the number of spermatocytes per cyst is age-dependent, in that pupae have a mean of 8.1 cells whereas fertile adult males have a mean of 7.1 cells. Counts of spermatids in section of testes add further support to the view that the primary spermatocytes, from which the spermatids originated, were not formed in a strict geometric progression.
