Stress tolerance and metabolic response to stress in Drosophila melanogaster.
Heredity - 1 Nov 1998
Clark A G, Fucito C D
Abstract excerpt
A potentially important physiological response to stress may be alteration in the gross regulation of energy metabolism. Different genotypes may respond differently to environmental stress, and the variation in these norms of reaction may be of key importance to the maintenance of genetic variation in metabolic traits. In the study reported here, a set of genetically defined lines of Drosophila melanogaster were...
