The inheritance of three protein fractions of third instar larval lymph in Drosophila melanogaster as detected by starch gel electrophoresis is described. Each of the three is governed by a single autosomal gene. In two, the dominant allele determines presence, and the recessive absence of the respective fraction. The third protein fraction is governed by a single pair of co-dominant alleles.

Comparison of the starch-gel pattern to that obtained on cellulose acetate and on polyacrylamide gel fails to show definite sub-fractionation of those protein bands of which the inheritance has been studied.
