Inbreeding avoidance and the genetic basis of inbreeding depression in Drosophila
This dissertation describes a study of the role of sexual selection in inbreeding avoidance and an extensive analysis of the genetics basis of inbreeding depression using species of the fruit fly <i>Drosophila</i> as model organisms. Using behaviour experiments and molecular genetic tech...
