An inversion moves a wild-type allele (red eyes) at the white locus in Drosophila to a chromosomal region that contains highly condensed, the wild-type allele is not expressed in some cells, resulting in an eye consisting of red and white spots.

Galactolipids are localized in the thylakoid membranes (internal membranes) of chloroplasts; they make up 70% to 80% of the total membrane lipids of a vascular plant, and are therefore probably the most abundant membrane lipids in the biosphere.

Phosphate is often the limiting plant nutrient in soil, and perhaps the evolutionary pressure to conserve phosphate for more critical roles favored plants that made phosphate-free lipids.
