This study identifies a polygenic architecture for wing shape and size adaptation in Drosophila melanogaster to high-altitude environments, with one large-effect QTL and many small-effect alleles contributing to divergence.

This study uses a Drosophila model to show that high fat diets alter cardiac ECM morphology and function, with genotype-specific responses to dietary fat.

The paper investigates the replication of genetic effects on wing shape in Drosophila melanogaster using artificial selection and bulk segregant analysis, finding shared genetic responses but limited replication in natural populations.
