Parental Age Effects on the Female Fitness Traits in Drosophila melanogaster
نویسنده
چکیده
The female age including, 2-3 days aged old (young aged), 17-18 days aged old (middle aged) and 31-32 days aged (old aged) mated with virgin male (5-6 days aged old). The results by SPSS software analayzed that in almost all of experimental young aged old had significantly level than middle and old age. Fecundity elements, in young age was greater than middle and old age, also the female ovariole elements when mated with male young age was more than middle and old age. This variability suggests that female age effected on the male reproductive performance and female fitness traits. Therefore, the female age specific possibility occurrence on reproductive access as follows by: young > middle >old aged.

Parental age, gametic age, and inbreeding interact to modulate offspring viability in Drosophila melanogaster.
In principle, parental relatedness, parental age, and the age of parental gametes can all influence offspring fitness through inbreeding depression and the parental effects of organismal and postmeiotic gametic senescence. However, little is known about the extent to which these factors interact and contribute to fitness variation. Here, we show that, in Drosophila melanogaster, offspring viabi...
متن کاملConcentration dependent effect of morphine, aspirin, capsaicin and chili pepper hydro alcoholic extract on thermal and chemical pain model in fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster)
Introduction: Pain research using animal models is related to ethical concerns, so invertebrates and insects have been recommended by researchers. In the present study, the nociceptive and antinociceptive effects of capsaicin, aspirin, morphine and chili extract were examined using fruit fly (Drosophila melanogaster) as an alternative for rodent pain model. Methods: Stage 3 of larvae and ad...
متن کاملDirect and trans-generational effects of male and female gut microbiota in Drosophila melanogaster
There is increasing evidence of the far-reaching effects of gut bacteria on physiological and behavioural traits, yet the fitness-related consequences of changes in the gut bacteria composition of sexually interacting individuals remain unknown. To address this question, we manipulated the gut microbiota of fruit flies, Drosophila melanogaster, by monoinfecting flies with either Acetobacter pom...

Background: In this study, the toxicity of the different xenobiotics was tested on the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster model system. Methods: Fly larvae were raised on food supplemented with xenobioticsat different concentrations (sodium nitroprusside (0.1-1.5 mM), S-nitrosoglutathione (0.5-4 mM), and potassium ferrocyanide (1 mM)). Emergence of flies, food intake by larvae, and pupation h...
متن کاملParental and developmental temperature effects on the thermal dependence of fitness in Drosophila melanogaster.
Cross-generational effects refer to nongenetic influences of the parental phenotype or environment on offspring phenotypes. Such effects are commonly observed, but their adaptive significance is largely unresolved. We examined cross-generational effects of parental temperature on offspring fitness (estimated via a serial-transfer assay) at different temperatures in a laboratory population of Dr...
