Thermal phenotypic plasticity of body size in Drosophila melanogaster: sexual dimorphism and genetic correlations.

Journal of genetics - 1 Aug 2011

David Jean R, Yassin Amir, Moreteau Jean-Claude, Legout Helene, Moreteau Brigitte

Abstract excerpt

Thirty isofemale lines collected in three different years from the same wild French population were grown at seven different temperatures (12-31 °C). Two linear measures, wing and thorax length, were taken on 10 females and 10 males of each line at each temperature, also enabling the calculation of the wing/thorax (W/T) ratio, a shape index related to wing loading. Genetic correlations were calculated using...
