Extra-nuclear effects on growth and development in the sand cricket Gryllus firmus.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 May 2004

Roff D A, Sokolovska N

Abstract excerpt

Although largely ignored until recently, parental effects on the phenotypes of their offspring are both ubiquitous in nature and of a potentially great importance to evolution. Our study examines the presence of extra-nuclear (maternal and paternal) effects in growth traits, development time and adult size in the sand cricket Gryllus firmus using a diallel cross of inbred lines. Sex linkage was shown to be...
