Genetic variation for sexual dimorphism in developmental traits in Drosophila melanogaster.

G3 (Bethesda, Md.) - 3 Apr 2024

Li Tianyu, Zhang Rebecca S, True John R

Abstract excerpt

Sexual dimorphism in traits of insects during the developmental stages could potentially be the direct or indirect result of sex-specific selection provided that genetic variation for sexual dimorphism is present. We investigated genetic variation in sexual dimorphism in a set of Drosophila melanogaster inbred lines for 2 traits: egg to adult development time and pupation site preference. We observed considerable...
