Phenotypic plasticity and reaction norms of abdominal bristle number in Drosophila melanogaster.

Journal of biosciences - 1 Dec 2005

Moreteau Brigitte, David Jean R

Abstract excerpt

The phenotypic plasticity of abdominal bristle number (segments 3 and 4 in females) was investigated in 10 isofemale lines from a French population, grown at 7 constant temperatures, ranging from 12 to 31 degrees C. Overall concave reaction norms were obtained with a maximum around 20-21 degrees C. Intraclass correlation (isofemale line heritability) was not affected by temperature. Correlations between segments...
