Interaction between selection and genetic drift in laboratory populations of Drosophila bipectinata.

Abstract excerpt

To study the effect of selection and random genetic drift in laboratory populations of D. bipectinata, cut wing mutant and wild type stocks were crossed in several bottles. All the lines were maintained for several generations and in each generation the number of wild type and mutant flies was scored. Based on the number of two types of males, the frequency of cut gene and its normal allele was calculated for...
