Does evolution reduce the body size? A study of the four members of newly evolved nasuta-albomicans complex of Drosophila.

Genetica - 1 Jan 1999

Harini B P, Ramachandra N B

Abstract excerpt

Our long range interracial hybridization experiments between a pair of cross fertile races, Drosophila nasuta (2n = 8) and D. albomicans (2n = 6) have resulted in the evolution of two new karyotypic strains under laboratory conditions, which are named as Cytorace 1 and Cytorace 2. These Cytoraces harbor chromosomes from both parents. Here, we compare the body size of the parental races and newly evolved Cytoraces...
