Artifical selection was practised for increased and decreased rates of recombination between 2 pairs of 3rd chromosome genes G1, Sb, Ser, in female D. melanogaster. These genes were placed on a genetic background derived largely from a natural population (IV), prior to the start of selection. One line out of 16 showed a significant response to selection; recombination between Gl and Sb was increased from 13% to 22%. There was no evidence for directional dominance in the F1 betweeen the Gl-Sb high recombination stock and the unselected control, but there was a small (.apprxeq. 1.5%) but significant reciprocal difference. Backcross experiment showed that this was due to a grandmaternal effect of the nuclear genotype, probably controlled by genes on chromosome 3. These experiments also demonstrated that chromosomes 2 and 3 contributed significantly to difference between the stocks; there was suggestive but not conclusive evidence for an X chromosome effect. Salivary chromosome studies ruled out any role of cytologically detectable chromosome rearrangements in these effects.
