Independence of genetic variation between circadian rhythm and development time in the seed beetle, Callosobruchus chinensis.

Abstract excerpt

A positive genetic correlation between periods of circadian rhythm and developmental time supports the hypothesis that circadian clocks are implicated in the timing of development. Empirical evidence for this genetic correlation in insects has been documented in two fly species. In contrast, here we show that there is no evidence of genetic correlation between circadian rhythm and development time in the adzuki...
