Assortative mating in Drosophila adapted to a microsite ecological gradient.

Behavior genetics - 1 Nov 2005

Singh Shree Ram, Rashkovetsky Eugenia, Iliadi Konstantin, Nevo Eviatar, Korol Abraham

Abstract excerpt

Elucidating the causes of population divergence, and ultimately speciation, is a central objective of evolutionary biology. A number of previous studies of Drosophila populations from the Nahal Oren canyon (Mt Carmel, Israel) revealed significant interslope differences for a complex of fitness and behavioral traits. Peculiarities in courtship song patterns and nonrandom mating were observed, despite a small...
