History and structure of sub-Saharan populations of Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Oct 2006

Pool John E, Aquadro Charles F

Abstract excerpt

Drosophila melanogaster is an important model organism in evolutionary genetics, yet little is known about the population structure and the demographic history of this species within sub-Saharan Africa, which is thought to contain its ancestral range. We surveyed nucleotide variation at four 1-kb fragments in 240 individual lines representing 21 sub-Saharan and 4 Palearctic population samples of D. melanogaster....
