Comments
	A Dfun\jockey element has been cloned and sequenced. The high degree of similarity between D.melanogaster jockey and Dfun\jockey and the absence of jockey elements from other sibling species of the D.funebris group provide evidence for the horizontal transmission of jockey into D.funebris. (Mizrokhi and Mazo, 1990) Isolated from a D.funebris genomic library using a jockey element from D.melanogaster as a probe. (Mizrokhi and Mazo, 1990)
