Enzymatic and quantitative variation in European and African populations of Drosophila simulans
Abstract
Allozyme polymorphism at 15 loci of D. simulans was studied in 7 natural populations from Europe, North and tropical Africa. Morphological traits were studied in nine European and eleven Afrotropical strains.Within a population, the biochemical polymorphisms of Drosophila simulans and its sibling Drosophila melanogaster are not very different, although D. simulans has a lower heterozygosity. Between-populations genetic differentiation is …
