Testing for asymmetrical gene flow in a Drosophila melanogaster body-size cline.

Genetics - 1 Oct 2003

Kennington W Jason, Gockel Julia, Partridge Linda

Abstract excerpt

Asymmetrical gene flow is an important, but rarely examined genetic parameter. Here, we develop a new method for detecting departures from symmetrical migration between two populations using microsatellite data that are based on the difference in the proportion of private alleles. Application of this approach to data collected from wild-caught Drosophila melanogaster along a latitudinal body-size cline in eastern...
