Article

A quantitative genetic study of starvation resistance at different geographic scales in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics research - 1 Aug 2010

Goenaga Julieta, José Fanara Juan, Hasson Esteban

Abstract excerpt

Food shortage is a stress factor that commonly affects organisms in nature. Resistance to food shortage or starvation resistance (SR) is a complex quantitative trait with direct implications on fitness. However, surveys of natural genetic variation in SR at different geographic scales are scarce. Here, we have measured variation in SR in sets of lines derived from nine natural populations of Drosophila...
