Temperature stress mediates decanalization and dominance of gene expression in Drosophila melanogaster.

The regulatory architecture of gene expression remains an area of active research. Here, we studied how the interplay of genetic and environmental variation affects gene expression by exposing Drosophila melanogaster strains to four different developmental temperatures. At 18°C we observed almost co...
