Genetic variation of sex allocation in the parasitoid wasp Heterospilus prosopidis.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Nov 2003

Kobayashi Aya, Tanaka Yoshinari, Shimada Masakazu

Abstract excerpt

The genetic variation of sex ratio and sex allocation were examined in a series of half-sib analyses on the sex ratio of braconid parasitoid wasp Heterospilus prosopidis populations collected in Hawaii and Arizona. The mean threshold value and the range of the threshold for change in the sex of offspring in response to resource quality (host size) were determined. Estimates of the narrow-sense heritability (h2)...
