Bottleneck effects on genetic variance for courtship repertoire.

Genetics - 1 Jan 1995

Meffert L M

Abstract excerpt

Bottleneck effects on evolutionary potential in mating behavior were addressed through assays of additive genetic variances and resulting phenotypic responses to drift in the courtship repertoires of six two-pair founder-flush lines and two control populations of the housefly. A simulation addressed the complication that an estimate of the genetic variance for a courtship trait (e.g., male performance vigor or...
