Abstract
Mutations w(RSV-1) and w(RSV-4) Obtained by microinjection of RSV cDNA into early embryos of Drosophila melanogaster were shown to be caused by the insertion of mobile elements jockey and B104(rov), respectivel y; partial reversion of w(RSV-1r) arose due to the deletion of a 5'-re gion of mobile element jockey and of the adjacent region of the genomi c DNA. It is concluded that genetic instability induced by oncoviral D NAs is based on the ability of these DNAs to induce transpositions of various mobile elements in the recipient genome.
