Genetic Drift in Irradiated Experimental Populations of Drosophila Melanogaster.
HE investigation reported in the present paper is of the effects of genetic T drift in three experimental populations of Drosophila melanogastar, two of which received treatments with gamma rays. Although there has been considerable theoretical discussion of genetic drift, few experimental studies of this phenomenon have been carried out. This paucity of experimental verification exists in spit...
متن کاملSleep in populations of Drosophila melanogaster Sleep in populations of Drosophila melanogaster
15 The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster is a diurnal insect active during the day with 16 consolidated sleep at night. Social interactions between pairs of flies have been shown to 17 affect locomotor activity patterns, but effects on locomotion and sleep patterns have not been 18 assessed for larger populations. Here, we use a commercially available Locomotor Activity 19 Monitor (LAM25H) syst...
متن کاملGenetic Differentiation between Geographically Distant Populations of DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER.
We have studied allozyme variation at 26 gene loci in nine populations of Drosophila melanogaster originating on five different continents. The distant populations show significant genetic differentiation. However, only half of the loci studied have contributed to this differentiation; the other half show identical patterns in all populations. The genetic differentiation in North American, Euro...
متن کاملGenetic Effects of Deuterium Oxide in Drosophila Melanogaster.
I N 1943, ZAMENHOF and DEMEREC reported that heavy water (D20) did not increase the recessive lethal mutation rate in Drosophila melanogaster when incorporated into the culture medium or injected in larvae. However, studies on the sterility-inducing ability of D,O in mice (HUGHES and CALVIN 1958; HUGHES, BENNETT, and CALVIN 1959) suggested that the damage might be genetic in character. Therefor...
