Summay
A new established cell line 79f7Dv3g, ofDrosophila virilis consisting initially of male and female cells and represented now, after 6 yr of cultivation, only by male cells is described. The population doubling time is 36 h at 25° C. The cell culture is also able to grow in serum-free media for an indefinite time without special selection and has a population doubling time of 2 d.
