“…The Dipteran Acricotopus lucidus (Chironomidae) exhibits striking cell-and development-specific differences in the puffing activity of the Balbiani rings in the anterior (AL), main (ML), and side (SL) lobes of the larval salivary gland (Mechelke 1953(Mechelke , 1963(Mechelke , 1967. The electrophoretic pattern of the secretory proteins of AL and ML/SL is totally different (Baudisch 1977) and the aminoacid hydroxyproline occurs specifically in the secretions of the ML and SL (Baudisch 1960). Ecdysone induces successive regression of the AL Balbiani rings BR 3 and BR 4 in the course of development to the prepupa (Panitz 1964;Panitz et al 1972), in contrast to the unchanged activity of the ML/SL Balbiani rings BR 1 and BR 2.…”

Abstract.A detailed map of the salivary gland chromosomes of Acricotopus lucidus is presented. Differences in puffing and developmental puffing sequences of the three salivary gland lobes were investigated from mid fourth larval instar to pupation and compared with the puffing pattern of the Malpighian tubules. The intraglandular differentiation is quite extensive; the differences in the pattern of gene activity between the anterior lobe and the main and side lobes are as great as between the salivary gland and the Malpighian tubules. In the main and side lobes all developmental puffing changes proceed synchronously whereas in the anterior lobe both asynchronous and synchronous changes occur. In the anterior lobe the asynchronous regression of BR 3 and BR 4 is followed by a characteristic sequence of activation and inactivation of puffs.

H. MORGAN had returned to embryological studies, interrupted 25 years earlier by Drosophila, and the report was a summary of the work of the other two authors. CA LV IN BRIDGES was preparing detailed chromosome maps and cataloging the breakpoints of genetically known chromosome re arrangements in order to correlate his genetic maps with the new cytological ones. ]ACK SCHULTZ, among other projects, continued his studies on position-effect variegation. He noted variegation of the morphology of the salivary gland chromosome regions known to contain the genes for which mottled effects had been observed.Polytene chromosomes continued to play a prominent role in ]ACK'S thoughts and work for the rest of his life. Thirty years later in the 1965 Brookhaven Symposium we find original work supporting the earlier view that variegation resulted from the inactivation of genes in some cells but not others during development: in this case the development of a puff served as the indicator of activity. The intervening years had included a variety of studies aimed at understanding the phenomenon in terms of the regulation of the synthesis of nucleic acids, beginning in an era when proteins were known to have the range of specificities required of the genetic material.But personal involvement in experimental work directly concerned with polytene chromosomes does not reflect the extent of his influence on matters discussed in this volume, namely the nature and function of the genetic material. His most important writings were preparations of critical analysis of data at hand (of which the 1965 symposium paper was the last and one of the best), indicating where evidence was strong and where weak, but, most important, drawing on a wealth of disciplines varied enough to avoid pitfalls so often associated with "specialization". It was the analysis that appealed to hirn and that he offered; those who looked to his writings for answers were sometimes disappointed by a carefully worded statement balancing VI Jack Schultz evidence ag...
