Contrasting patterns of natural variation in global Drosophila melanogaster populations.

Molecular ecology - 1 Oct 2008

Nunes Maria D S, Neumeier Hannah, Schlötterer Christian

Abstract excerpt

Despite the popularity of Drosophila melanogaster in functional and evolutionary genetics, the global pattern of natural variation has not yet been comprehensively described in this species. For the first time, we report a combined survey using neutral microsatellites and mitochondrial sequence variation jointly. Thirty-five populations originating from five continents were compared. In agreement with previous...
