Genetic variation affecting heart rate in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetical research - 1 Oct 1999

Robbins J, Aggarwal R, Nichols R, Gibson G

Abstract excerpt

Heart rate in pre-pupae of Drosophila melanogaster is shown to vary over a wide range from 2.5 to 3.7 beats per second. Quantitative genetic analysis of a sample of 11 highly inbred lines indicates that approaching one-quarter of the total variance in natural populations can be attributed to genetic differences between flies. A hypomorphic allele of the potassium channel gene ether-a-gogo, which is homologous to...
