What is The ?-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase (?-gpdh) polymorphism in Drosophila melanogaster: adult survival under temperature stress about?
As a test of the hypothesis that adult temperature stress is an important component of natural selection maintaining the α-gpdh polymorphism, we have looked for differential survival among genotypes subjected to (i) heat shock and (ii) cold shock. Factorial ANOVAR, taking account of genotype, sex and temperature-stress indicated that genotype did not contribute to the variance of survival proportion per vial. We have not therefore found evidence to support our hypothesis. Incidental to the above was a significant sex-temperature interaction. Thus, adult females showed higher survival than males under heat stress, while under cold stress, there was no indication of a survival difference between the sexes.
