Genetic variation for total fitness in Drosophila melanogaster.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Feb 1997

Fowler K, Semple C, Barton N H, Partridge L

Abstract excerpt

We measured the heterozygous effects on net fitness of a sample of 12 wild-type third chromosomes in D. melanogaster. Effects on fitness were assessed by competing the wild-type chromosomes against balancer chromosomes, to prevent the production of recombinants. The measurements were carried out in the population cage environment in which the life history had been evolving, in an undisturbed population with...
