Quantitative genetic variation of odor-guided behavior in a natural population of Drosophila melanogaster.

Genetics - 1 Oct 1996

Mackay T F, Hackett J B, Lyman R F, Wayne M L, Anholt R R

Abstract excerpt

Quantitative genetic variation in behavioral response to the odorant, benzaldehyde, was assessed among a sample of 43 X and 35 third chromosomes extracted from a natural population and substituted into a common inbred background. Significant genetic variation among chromosome lines was detected. Heritability estimates for olfactory response, however, were low, as is typical for traits under natural selection....
