Abstract excerpt
The effect of nutritional stress on phenotypical and genetic variation was examined for five morphological traits (thorax length, wing length, sternopleural chaeta number, abdominal chaeta number and arista branch number) in 30 isofemale lines of Drosophila melanogaster. Phenotypical variation of all traits except sternopleural chaeta number and fluctuating asymmetry of all bilateral traits were significantly...
