Developmental constraints in the Drosophila wing.

Heredity - 1 Dec 1997

Guerra D, Pezzoli M C, Giorgi G, Garoia F, Cavicchi S

Abstract excerpt

Selection experiments for shortening the four longitudinal veins in a wild population of Drosophila melanogaster have been performed to evaluate how a local change is integrated in the wing development. Our results show that, though many units of selection seem to exist within a given organ, these are strongly constrained within the developmental programme, in such a way that only some predictable forms are...
