Chromosomal Polymorphism in Drosophila Rubida
HE population geneticist is essentially interested in the variation of gene freTquencies in natural populations. Within chromosomal inversions blocks of genes are contained and in many species of Drosophila due to the presence of easily analysable giant chromosomes, the behavior of these blocks of genes can be easily studied in natural populations. Thus, of recent years chromosomal inversion po...
متن کاملPolytene chromosome map and inversion polymorphism in Drosophila mediopunctata.
Drosophila mediopunctata belongs to the tripunctata group, and is one of the commonest Drosophila species collected in some places in Brazil, especially in the winter. A standard map of the polytene chromosomes is presented. The breakpoints of the naturally occurring chromosomal rearrangements are marked on the map. The distribution of breaking points through the chromosomes of D. mediopunctata...
متن کاملRate of development and inversion polymorphism in Drosophila pavani.
DROSOPHZLA PAVANI BRNCIC 1957 is a neotropical species belonging to the mesophragmatica group which is very abundant in central Chile and on the eastern slope 01 the Andes in Argentine. The natural populations of this species are polymorphic for the gene arrangements in two of its chromosomes. Chromosome 2 has two inversions, one included within the other, which have up to now never been found ...
متن کاملRecombination load in a chromosomal inversion polymorphism of Drosophila subobscura.
Chromosomal inversions suppress recombination in heterokaryotypes and may help to maintain positive epistatic interactions among groups of alleles at loci contained in the inversion. Here I evaluate the protective effect of inversions on recombination when different chromosomal segments, or even the whole chromosome O of Drosophila subobscura, can be effectively prevented from undergoing recomb...
متن کاملModes of Selection Maintaining an Inversion Polymorphism in DROSOPHILA PAULISTORUM.
The possibility that fitness relationships associated with an inversion polymorphism in D. paulistorum were frequency dependent was investigated. Using allozymes of tetrazolium oxidase to mark inversions, the effects of genotype frequency, larval density, and culture conditions on fitness were assessed. The proportions of genotypes among egg-laying females were varied, thus changing the expecte...
