Growth temperature and reaction norms of morphometrical traits in a tropical drosophilid: Zaprionus indianus.

Heredity - 1 Oct 1999

Karan D, Moreteau B, David J R

Abstract excerpt

Ten isofemale lines of Zaprionus indianus were analysed to study the reaction norms of five morphometrical traits (wing and thorax length, body weight, sternopleural bristle and ovariole number) in relation to growth temperature. All these traits exhibited nonlinear concave reaction norms and were characterized by the coordinates of their maximum: MV (maximum value), and TMV (temperature of maximum value)....
