D. melanogaster females with the designated deletions were mated to D. mauritiana males at 18°. The small number of live males recovered are likely patroclinous exceptions, that is Xmau/O. Pharate adu
A longstanding focus in evolutionary physiology concerns the causes and consequences of variation in maintenance metabolism. Insight into this can be gained by estimating the sex-specific genetic ar
