The alcohol dehydrogenase polymorphism in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster: restriction map variation in the region of the Adh locus in populations from two hemispheres.

abstract：:Cultural transmission may depend on the non-genetic transfer of information from parent to offspring. The consequences of such cultural transmission for continuous variation are investigated theoretically for randomly mating populations. Cultural inheritance may act on genetical and environmental differences between i...
