Genetic variation for egg-to-adult survival in drosophila melanogaster in a set of recombinant inbred lines reared under heat stress in a natural thermal environment
Quantitative trait loci (QTL) for thermotolerance were previously identified for adult flies in several mapping populations of Drosophila melanogaster Meigen (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in the laboratory. However, laboratory assays may not necessarily reflect the performance under heat stress in the fi...

Quantitative trait loci (QTL) for thermotolerance were previously identified for adult flies in several mapping populations of Drosophila melanogaster Meigen (Diptera: Drosophilidae) in the laboratory. However, laboratory assays may not necessarily reflect the performance under heat stress in the field. For instance, do the heat-resistance QTL regions in the field match the QTL for thermotolerance in laboratory studies? To address this and related questions we used a set of recombinant inbred lines (RIL), which were originally used to identify QTL in the laboratory.We tested egg-to-adult survival (EAS) QTL in a field experiment under naturally varying heat-stress temperatures in fly cultures reared on a rotting fruit (banana) in summer.
