Associations between environmental stress, selection history, and quantitative genetic variation in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetica - 1 May 2006

Swindell William R, Bouzat Juan L

Abstract excerpt

Stressful environments may increase quantitative genetic variation in populations by promoting the expression of genetic variation that has not previously been eliminated or canalized by natural selection. This "selection history" hypothesis predicts that novel stressors will increase quantitative genetic variation, and that the magnitude of this effect will decrease following continued stress exposure. We tested...
