A test for Y-linked additive and epistatic effects on surviving bacterial infections in Drosophila melanogaster.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Jul 2017

Kutch I C, Fedorka K M

Abstract excerpt

Y- and W-chromosomes offer a theoretically powerful way for sexual dimorphism to evolve. Consistent with this possibility, Drosophila melanogaster Y-chromosomes can influence gene regulation throughout the genome; particularly immune-related genes. In order for Y-linked regulatory variation (YRV) to contribute to adaptive evolution it must be comprised of additive genetic variance, such that variable Ys induce...
