Abstract excerpt
We report the results of two independent selection experiments that have exposed distinct populations of Drosophila melanogaster to different forms of thermal selection. A recombinant population derived from Arvin California and Zimbabwe isofemale lines was exposed to laboratory natural selection at two temperatures (T(AZ): 18°C and 28°C). Microsatellite mapping identified quantitative trait loci (QTL) on the...
