Genetic variation for oviposition behavior in Drosophila melanogaster. II. Oviposition preferences and differential survival.

Behavior genetics - 1 Sept 1990

van Delden W, Kamping A

Abstract excerpt

Several behavioral traits connected with oviposition were studied in Drosophila melanogaster strains which ahd been kept on regular and ethanol-supplemented food. All strains preferred food with a low agar content for oviposition, though this tendency was more pronounced in an ethanol-adapted strain. Oviposition on regular and ethanol-supplemented food was tested both under choice and no-choice conditions. Though...
