Effect of directional selection for body size on fluctuating asymmetry in certain morphological traits in Drosophila ananassae.

Journal of biosciences - 1 Jun 2009

Vishalakshi C, Singh B N

Abstract excerpt

Variation in the subtle differences between the right and left sides of bilateral characters or fluctuating asymmetry (FA) has been considered as an indicator of an organism's ability to cope with genetic and environmental stresses during development. However, due to inconsistency in the results of empirical studies, the relationship between FA and stress has been the subject of intense debate. In this study, we...
