Abstract excerpt
Patterns of P element establishment and evolution were compared in populations of D. melanogaster and D. simulans. For each species, mixed populations were initiated with M strain flies lacking P elements together with P strain flies having similar P element copy numbers and phenotypes. The mixed...
