Maternal effect influencing male genital disc development in Drosophila melanogaster.
HE development of the testes and associated organs in Drosophiln melanoT g m t m has been studied by many investigators (STERN 1940. 1941a. b; STERN and HADORS 1939; URSPRUNC 1963). A review of the literature has been given by RODI:.NSTIXN (1950). During the larval and early pupal stages. the testes are ellipsoidal in form. Following attachment of the testes to the developing seminal vesicles. ...
متن کاملabnormal chromatin (abc), a maternal-effect locus in Drosophila melanogaster.
Mutations in the maternal-effect gene abnormal chromatin (abc) in Drosophila melanogaster result in a variety of defects involving nuclear replication/division. Three recessive alleles of this gene, which maps near 51F on chromosome 2, all result in female sterility. They cause slower embryonic development that is usually abnormal from the earliest nuclear divisions and arrested by the sixth on...
متن کاملGenome-Wide Association Study on Male Genital Shape and Size in Drosophila melanogaster
Male genital morphology of animals with internal fertilization and promiscuous mating systems have been one of the most diverse and rapidly evolving morphological traits. The male genital morphology in general is known to have low phenotypic and genetic variations, but the genetic basis of the male genital variation remains unclear. Drosophila melanogaster and its closely related species are mo...
متن کاملMultiple Quantitative Trait Loci Influence the Shape of a Male-Specific Genital Structure in Drosophila melanogaster
The observation that male genitalia diverge more rapidly than other morphological traits during evolution is taxonomically widespread and likely due to some form of sexual selection. One way to elucidate the evolutionary forces acting on these traits is to detail the genetic architecture of variation both within and between species, a program of research that is considerably more tractable in a...
متن کاملMale-mating Ability in Drosophila Melanogaster
The effect of full-sib inbreeding on competitive male-mating ability (CI8) in Drosophila melanogaster was investigated in two experiments. In the first, five inbred lines (with reserves) were assessed up to 18 generations. Linear inbreeding depression, of 5.9% per 10% increase in homozygosity, was observed. In a second experiment, 21 inbred lines were tested after three generations of full-sib ...
