Between-sex genetic covariance constrains the evolution of sexual dimorphism in Drosophila melanogaster.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Aug 2014

Ingleby F C, Innocenti P, Rundle H D, Morrow E H

Abstract excerpt

Males and females share much of their genome, and as a result, intralocus sexual conflict is generated when selection on a shared trait differs between the sexes. This conflict can be partially or entirely resolved via the evolution of sex-specific genetic variation that allows each sex to approach, or possibly achieve, its optimum phenotype, thereby generating sexual dimorphism. However, shared genetic variation...
