The relationship of heart function to temperature in Drosophila melanogaster and its heritability.

Journal of experimental zoology. Part A, Ecological genetics and physiology - 1 Nov 2009

Jennings Tricia, Ringo John, Dowse Harold

Abstract excerpt

We measured heart rate and rhythmicity (regularity) of heartbeat in Drosophila melanogaster at five different temperatures (20, 25, 30, 35, and 37 degrees C) for a Florida population and estimated the narrow-sense heritability of both traits. Heritability of heart rate ranged from 0.17 to 0.24, b...
