QTL mapping of inbreeding-related cold sensitivity and conditional lethality in Drosophila melanogaster.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Sept 2008

Vermeulen C J, Bijlsma R, Loeschcke V

Abstract excerpt

Inbreeding depression is a central theme within genetics, and is of specific interest for researchers within evolutionary and conservation genetics and animal and plant breeding. Inbreeding effects are thought to be caused by the joint expression of conditional and unconditional deleterious alleles. Whenever the expression of deleterious alleles is conditional, this can result in extreme environmental sensitivity...
