The quantitative genetic basis of sex ratio variation in Nasonia vitripennis: a QTL study.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Jan 2011

Abstract excerpt

Our understanding of how natural selection should shape sex allocation is perhaps more developed than for any other trait. However, this understanding is not matched by our knowledge of the genetic basis of sex allocation. Here, we examine the genetic basis of sex ratio variation in the parasitoid wasp Nasonia vitripennis, a species well known for its response to local mate competition (LMC). We identified a...
