[The effect of male mating competitiveness, developmental rate, and viability of larvae and pupae in Drosophila melanogaster heterozygous for the temperature-sensitive lethal mutation l(2)M167DTS on the dynamics of the mutation elimination from the population].

Abstract excerpt

The dependence of selection on an introduced mutation 1(2)M167DTS on male mating competitiveness, viability, and developmental rate of larvae and pupae of Drosophila melanogaster, heterozygous for this mutation, was examined in population experiments with preset conditions. The limitations of fitness parameters of individuals l(2)M167DTS/+ relative to individuals +/+ were estimated according to the conditions of...
