Evolutionary optimality applied to Drosophila experiments: hypothesis of constrained reproductive efficiency.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jun 2002

Novoseltsev V N, Arking R, Novoseltseva J A, Yashin A I

Abstract excerpt

The general purpose of the paper is to test evolutionary optimality theories with experimental data on reproduction, energy consumption, and longevity in a particular Drosophila genotype. We describe the resource allocation in Drosophila females in terms of the oxygen consumption rates devoted to reproduction and to maintenance. The maximum ratio of the component spent on reproduction to the total rate of oxygen...
