Hotta and Benzer (ref. 1), using loss of phototactic response as an indicator of defective vision in ebony11and tan1mutants ofD. melanogaster, have shown that these mutants also possess abnormal electroretinograms (ERGs). Certain other body colour mutants, however, such as black, show normal ERGs, suggesting that body colour abnormality and defective ERG are unrelated. Pearce (now Crossley)2,3reported that the ebony gene influenced behaviour in a number of ways, not all of which could be related to defective vision. A more detailed analysis of the mutants studied by Hotta and Benzer is therefore of interest.
