Abstract:
Objective To study a gene determing the sensitivity to sevoflurane in autosomal chromosomes of Drosophila melanogaster. Methods Virgin females of wild type Drosophila melanogaster(H) were crossed with ebony(e) males to breeding F 1 hybrids ,to measure the ED 50 of e,H and F 1 for sevoflurane. Then, e virgin females were crossed with F 1 males to breed F 2 hybrids. Sevoflurane ED 50 of F 2 hybrids was measured according to body's colour. The ED 50 was measured when the fruit flies were 7 days old.A hereditary analysis was conducted to determine the localization of gene(s) in chromosome determining sensitivitiy to sevoflurane. Results The ED 50 of H was significantly higher than that of e . The ED 50 of phenotype of F 1 hybrids was similar to one of H of F 1.The number ratio of flies with black abdomen to ebony flies was about 1∶1 in F 2 hybrids which generated from crosses of F 1 hybrid males with e virgin females. The sevoflurane ED 50 of F 2 hybrids was significantly higher than that of F 2 fly of e and was significantly lower than the ED 50 of F 2 fly of H . The dose response curve of F 2 hybrids had a two peak, however, the dose response curve of F 2 fruit fly of e or H had a single peak. Conclusions The gene(s) or major gene(s) determining the sensitivity to sevoflurane is (are) located on the second chromosome of Drosophila melanogaster.
