Population structure among African and derived populations of Drosophila simulans: evidence for ancient subdivision and recent admixture.

Genetics - 1 Sept 1999

Hamblin M T, Veuille M

Abstract excerpt

Previous studies based on allozyme variation have found little evidence for genetic differentiation in Drosophila simulans. On the basis of DNA sequence variation at two nuclear loci in four African populations of D. simulans, we show that there is significant structure to D. simulans populations within Africa. Variation at one of the loci, vermilion, appears to be neutral and supports an eastern African origin...
