      Detailed Description
      Statement
      Reference

      Melanotic tumors in caudal fat bodies; penetrance incomplete though raised to 100% by selection Characterized by precocious transformation of plasmatocytes into lamellocytes (which usually occurs at time of pupation); subsequent encapsulation of tissue by lamellocytes produce melanotic masses. Viability and fecundity low. RK3.
