Quantitative trait loci for thermotolerance phenotypes in Drosophila melanogaster.

Heredity - 1 Mar 2006

Morgan T J, Mackay T F C

Abstract excerpt

For insects, temperature is a major environmental variable that can influence an individual's behavioral activities and fitness. Drosophila melanogaster is a cosmopolitan species that has had great success in adapting to and colonizing diverse thermal niches. This adaptation and colonization has resulted in complex patterns of genetic variation in thermotolerance phenotypes in nature. Although extensive work has...
