*******************************************************************
Descriptions of contents:

DIS 73 is a compendium of four tables.  Three, compiled by the
FlyBase consortium, are major revisions of their DIS 69
counterparts describing D.  melanogaster genes.  The fourth is a
detailed description of the polytene maps of D. melanogaster.


	GENETIC LOCI lists genes sorted alphabetically by
abbreviation and listing gene name, map location, gene product
information and literature citations.  

	GENE FUNCTION lists loci sorted by the function of the
gene's product.

	GENE and ALLELE SYNONYMS lists synonyms alphabetically
together with their corresponding valid genetic symbols.  

	SALIVARY GLAND CHROMOSOME MAPS by T.I. Heino, A.O Saura and
V. Sorsa consist of light and electron micrographs of the polytene
chromosomes, and histograms of chromatin and DNA per band.


DIS 74, also compiled by the FlyBase Consortium, is an exhaustive
reference list of Drosophila from 1982 through 1993 inclusive,
presented in standard bibliographic order.  

Each volume will be about 675 pages.
