A QTL analysis of female variation contributing to refractoriness and sperm competition in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetical research - 1 Oct 2005

Lawniczak Mara K N, Begun David J

Abstract excerpt

Sperm competition is an important fitness component in many animal groups. Drosophila melanogaster males exhibit substantial genetic variation for sperm competitive ability and females show considerable genetic variation for first versus second male sperm use. Currently, the forces responsible for maintaining genetic variation in sperm competition related phenotypes are receiving much attention. While several...
