Gene Information from Publications

Publication Link Summary of findings
14657496 an allele of ds2 from the Zimbabwe population was introduced into Cosmopolitan flies; results show the Cosmopolitan allele confers resistance to cold as well as susceptibility to starvation when the entire genetic background is otherwise identical
16610320 This study failed replicate earlier results showing that carriers of M alleles are uniformly more cold resistant and less starvation resistant than carriers of Z alleles; it did demonstrate some evidence for sexual isolation due to desat2.
