Quantitative Trait Loci Affecting Starvation Resistance in Drosophila melanogaster

The ability to withstand periods of scarce food resources is an important fitness trait. Starvation resistance is a quantitative trait controlled by multiple interacting genes and exhibits considerable genetic variation in natural populations. This genetic variation could be maintained in the face o...
