Genetic architecture of a morphological shape difference between two Drosophila species.

Genetics - 1 Jan 2000

Zeng Z B, Liu J, Stam L F, Kao C H, Mercer J M, Laurie C C

Abstract excerpt

The size and shape of the posterior lobe of the male genital arch differs dramatically between Drosophila simulans and D. mauritiana. This difference can be quantified with a morphometric descriptor (PC1) based on elliptical Fourier and principal components analyses. The genetic basis of the interspecific difference in PC1 was investigated by the application of quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping procedures to...
