Eth1-bearing strain also relatively resistant to killing effects of chloroform or halothane; these phenotypes are dominant and semidominant, respectively; chloroform resistance due to major factor on chromosome 1 and a minor one on chromosome 2; halothane resistance caused by major factor on third chromosome (not known if same locus as that responsible for most of the ether resistance) and minor components on chromosomes 1 and 2; halothane resistance also seen with respect to anesthesia and genetic difference for this maps to chromosome 1.
Eth1 is the major determinant for resistance to ether lethality in the ether resistant Eth-29 strain (minor factors are present on chromosome 1). Resistance to ether lethality is dominant. The Eth-29 also shows incompletely dominant resistance to halothane lethality due to a major determinant on chromosome 3, and minor factors on chromosomes 1 and 2. The relationship between the chloroform resistance determinant on chromosome 3 and Eth1 is unclear. The lipid composition of wild-type and Eth-29 flies carrying Eth1 has been analysed.
