The genetic architecture of wing size divergence at varying spatial scales along a body size cline in Drosophila melanogaster.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Jul 2010

Kennington W Jason, Hoffmann Ary A

Abstract excerpt

Latitudinal clines in quantitative traits are common, but surprisingly little is known about the genetic bases of these divergences and how they vary within and between clines. Here, we use line-cross analysis to investigate the genetic architecture of wing size divergences at varying spatial scales along a body size cline in Drosophila melanogaster. Our results revealed that divergences in wing size along the...
