Genetic variation for sex ratio traits within a natural population of a parasitic wasp, Nasonia vitripennis.

Genetics - 1 Feb 1990

Orzack S H, Parker E D

Abstract excerpt

By analyzing isofemale strains extracted from a natural population of Nasonia vitripennis, we detected variation for the sex ratios produced in fresh hosts (first sex ratios) and in previously parasitized hosts (second sex ratios). Under simple assumptions of population structure, this between-strain heterogeneity of first sex ratios results in heterogeneity of fitnesses. There is approximately ten percent...
