Genome-wide deficiency screen for the genomic regions responsible for heat resistance in Drosophila melanogaster.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Temperature adaptation is one of the most important determinants of distribution and population size of organisms in nature. Recently, quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and gene expression profiling approaches have been used for detecting candidate genes for heat resistance. However, the resolution of QTL mapping is not high enough to examine the individual effects of various genes in each QTL....
