Polygenic mutation in Drosophila melanogaster: non-linear divergence among unselected strains.
A highly inbred strain of Drosophila melanogaster was subdivided into 20 replicate sublines that were maintained independently with 10 pairs of randomly sampled parents per generation for 180 generations. The variance between lines in abdominal and sternopleural bristle number increased little after 100 generations, in contrast to the neutral expectation of a linear increase; and the covariance...
متن کاملGenetic divergence in mandible form in relation to molecular divergence in inbred mouse strains.
Genetic divergence in the form of the mandible is examined in ten inbred strains of mice. Several univariate and multivariate genetic distance estimates are given for the morphological data and these estimates are compared to measures of genealogical and molecular divergence. Highly significant divergence occurs among the ten strains in all 11 mandible traits considered individually and simulta...
متن کاملThe genetic architecture of NAFLD among inbred strains of mice
To identify genetic and environmental factors contributing to the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, we examined liver steatosis and related clinical and molecular traits in more than 100 unique inbred mouse strains, which were fed a diet rich in fat and carbohydrates. A >30-fold variation in hepatic TG accumulation was observed among the strains. Genome-wide association stud...
متن کاملGenetic and haplotype diversity among wild-derived mouse inbred strains.
With the completion of the mouse genome sequence, it is possible to define the amount, type, and organization of the genetic variation in this species. Recent reports have provided an overview of the structure of genetic variation among classical laboratory mice. On the other hand, little is known about the structure of genetic variation among wild-derived strains with the exception of the pres...
متن کاملDental fluorosis: variability among different inbred mouse strains.
Concurrent with the decline in dental caries has been an increase in the prevalence of dental fluorosis, a side-effect of exposure to greater than optimal levels of fluoride during amelogenesis. The mechanisms that underlie the pathogenesis of dental fluorosis are not known. We hypothesize that genetic determinants influence an individual's susceptibility or resistance to develop dental fluoros...
