Spontaneous mutational variances and covariances for fitness-related traits in Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Jun 1996

Fernández J, López-Fanjul C

Abstract excerpt

Starting from a completely homozygous population of Drosophila melanogaster, 176 lines were derived and independently maintained by a single brother-sister mating per generation. Three fitness-related traits were considered (fecundity, egg-to-pupa and pupa-to-adult viabilities). Mutational heritabilities of these traits and genetic correlations between all possible pairs were calculated from the between line...
