Positive and negative selection on the total length of two fragments of an interrupted longitudinal wing vein in an isogenic line of Drosophila melanogaster was accompanied by changes in the genomic localization pattern of MGE 412. Strong truncation selection was conducted in the population of effective size Ne = 160 for 50 generations. Twenty-six out of 35 polymorphic HHS-induced segments of MGE localization behaved as independent copies and markers, whereas 9 segments proved to be selective. The second group included "hot" segments of HHS transposition induction (43B, 97E, etc.). Thus, final consensus patterns of induced MGE transpositions have a random and an adaptive component in generation 50 of positive and negative selection. Selective patterns probably include modifier MGEs, which generate induced genetic regulatory variation of polygenes controlling the selected quantitative trait in the isogenic line after HHS.

Objectives: NDM-producing Enterobacterales (NDME) account for 34.9% of new carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales cases in Israeli hospitals. The goals of this study were to characterize the genomic composition of NDME isolates and mobile genetic elements (MGEs) and to identify NDME transmission events (TEs).

The effect of treatment of males from an isogenic Drosophila melanogaster strain by limiting doses of ethanol fumes on transpositions of MGE 412 was examined. Validity of the phenomenon of transposition induction was demonstrated. We estimated rates of induced transposition (approximately 10(-2) events per site, per sperm, per generation versus < 10(-3) in control) and showed dose dependence of the rate on the exposure time of the males to ethanol fumes.

Comparative analysis of patterns of mobile genetic element 412 was conducted in 18 isogenic lines of Drosophila melanogaster isolated in three isogenic experiments in 1987 through 1999. Twelve "extra-hot" isogenization sites (in 15-18 lines) and 23 "hot" isogenization sites (> or = 10 lines) were found; of these, 19 occurred in the original heterogeneous line. These sites virtually do not overlap with hot induction sites of transposition.

Effects of temperature treatment (heavy heat shock, HHS; heat shock, HS; and cold shock, CS) on the daily productivity of treated males in different spermatogenesis stages have been studied in isogenic line 51 of Drosophila melanogaster. The average productivity was shown to substantially decrease in all cases. The sum of the HS and CS contributions to this decrease was nearly equal to the HHS (the combined HS and CS) contribution, i.

The dose dependence of the rate of gamma-induced transpositions and consequent dynamics of the MGE 412 pattern after gamma-irradiation were investigated in isogenic line 49 in generations F1, F12, F140, and F170. It was shown that the results on dose dependence of transpositions was very similar with the corresponding results of the classic works by Timofeeff-Ressovsky et al. (1935).
