“…Much of the recent interest in the metabolic activity of DNA has centered in studies on the giant polytene chromosomes of Dipteran larvae (5,10,40,42). Certain bands on these chromosomes show a disproportionate local increase in DNA content at the time of "puffing" or Balbiani ring formation.…”

“…The DNA body is known to be formed in contact with the sex chromosomes (Bayreuther, 1956). The finding that the nucleolus is found inside the body suggests that the chromosome region that takes part in forming the DNA body is either tile nucleolar organizing region or a chromosomal segment involving it.…”

“…This body was further studied by Gunthert (1910). In recent years, using cytochemical methods and tritium radioautography, Urbani and Russo-Caia (1964) the females, appears suddenly in the interphase of the oogonia four divisions before meiosis, and disintegrates at a given time in the development of the fly (Bayreuther, 1952(Bayreuther, , 1956Bauer, 1952). In…”

“…The paper containing this observation (Breuer and Pavan 1955) presents the first description of developmentally controlled gene amplification in specific genomic regions undergoing puffing, later called "DNA puffs". Pavan said on several occasions that, in discussions at scientific meetings, Prof. Beermann as well as other researchers expressed their doubts about that finding.…”
