Evolutionary dynamics and population biology of a polymorphic insect.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Nov 2005

Svensson E I, Abbott J

Abstract excerpt

Conspicuous heritable polymorphisms are useful to address the question if morph frequencies are stable or whether they fluctuate between generations. Ecological geneticists have studied colour polymorphisms in the past, but there are few long-term studies of genetic dynamics across multiple generations. We studied morph-frequency dynamics and female fecundity in the trimorphic blue-tailed damselfly (Ischnura...
