Significant effects of Pgi genotype and body reserves on lifespan in the Glanville fritillary butterfly.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 7 Apr 2009

Saastamoinen Marjo, Ikonen Suvi, Hanski Ilkka

Abstract excerpt

Individuals with a particular variant of the gene phosphoglucose isomerase (Pgi) have been shown to have superior dispersal capacity and fecundity in the Glanville fritillary butterfly (Melitaea cinxia), raising questions about the mechanisms that maintain polymorphism in this gene in the field. Here, we investigate how variation in the Pgi genotype affects female and male life history under controlled...
