Quantitative genetic analysis of larval life history traits in two alpine populations of Rana temporaria.

Genetica - 1 May 2003

Sommer Stefan, Pearman Peter B

Abstract excerpt

We estimated genetic and maternal variance components of larval life history characters in alpine populations of Rana temporaria (the common frog) using a full-sib/half-sib breeding design. We studied trait plasticity by raising tadpoles at 14 or 20 degrees C in the laboratory. Larval period and metamorphic mass were greater at 14 degrees C. Larval period did not differ between populations, but high elevation...
