Abstract excerpt
Fitness and its components in Drosophila melanogaster were estimated under the homozygous condition. All of these parameters, except for egg-to-adult viability and female fecundity, were measured under interspecific competition with D. hydei. The following results were obtained: (1) Significant genetic variation was detected in fitness, productivity, adult viability, total egg-to-adult viability and female...
