Inbreeding depression and male survivorship in Drosophila: implications for senescence theory.

Genetics - 1 Jan 2006

Swindell William R, Bouzat Juan L

Abstract excerpt

The extent to which inbreeding depression affects longevity and patterns of survivorship is an important issue from several research perspectives, including evolutionary biology, conservation biology, and the genetic analysis of quantitative traits. However, few previous inbreeding depression studies have considered longevity as a focal life-history trait. We maintained laboratory populations of Drosophila...
