Recombination frequency in different combinations of unstable alleles of the sn49::Tn-clw system was studied. In some diallele combinations, an increased recombination frequency in the region of signed gene was found. The distribution of mutant progeny in the compounds was different in recombination and non-recombinant classes. Restriction mapping of the Tn-clw transposon revealed that it contained conservative and variable sequences. Interallelic transitions were associated with rearrangement of the variable sequence and the signed sequences adjacent to the transposon.
