ABSTRACT: Starting from base populations which showed a tendency to form supernumerary dorsocentral bristles, selection for high numbers of dorsocentrals was carried out. In all, 9 lines were selected 6 to 14 generations. Selection proved to be effective in all but two lines. Selection for reduced numbers in one of the lines also proved effective.Mean values of over 10 were reached in the females of certain high lines. Average counts in males were always lower than those of females. This sex difference is not a consequence of the difference in size between the sexes.The base populations were of mutant stock origin, and some of them segregated for mutant genes which proved to be correlated with extrabristle phenotype. Supernumerary bristles were not distributed in the same manner in all of the selection lines, nor was the reaction of phenotypic expression to temperature the same in various lines.
