Abstract:
:We studied microgeographic and temporal genetic differentiation in natural populations of Drosophila persimilis with respect to chromosome inversion and enzyme polymorphisms. Both inversion frequencies and allozyme frequencies varied significantly over short distances. Neither differed significantly between morning and evening collections. Because several studies of the dispersal behavior of this species have been performed, we attempt to fit the observed data to mathematical models which relate dispersion to random genetic drift and to spatially varying selection coefficients. We conclude that the observations are due at least partly to behavioral differences among genotypes. i.e., habitat preferences. These results have implications for genetic load theory and models of selection in heterogeneous environments.

GENETICS文献大全abstract::Proper levels of gene expression are important for normal mammalian development. Typically, altered gene dosage caused by karyotypic abnormalities results in embryonic lethality or birth defects. Segmental aneuploidy can be compatible with life but often results in contiguous gene syndromes. The ability to manipulate ...
