Quantitative wing variation in inbred and outbred lines of Drosophila melanogaster.

The Journal of heredity - 1 Jan 2000

Curtsinger J W

Abstract excerpt

Variation of two wing morphology characters was studied in 11 X-chromosome substitution lines and three outbred lines of D. melanogaster, as a test of quantitative genetic predictions regarding variance components and heritabilities. As expected from inbreeding of the lines, between-lines components of phenotypic variance are statistically significant, while the significant within-line component is attributable...
