[Response of the MGE 412 pattern to truncation selection of a quantitative trait in an isogenic line of drosophila after severe heat shock (SHS)].
Positive and negative selection on the total length of two fragments of an interrupted longitudinal wing vein in an isogenic line of Drosophila melanogaster was accompanied by changes in the genomic localization pattern of MGE 412. Strong truncation selection was conducted in the population of effective size Ne = 160 for 50 generations. Twenty-six out of 35 polymorphic HHS-induced segments of MGE localization behaved as independent copies and markers, whereas 9 segments proved to be selective. The second group included "hot" segments of HHS transposition induction (43B, 97E, etc.). Thus, final consensus patterns of induced MGE transpositions have a random and an adaptive component in generation 50 of positive and negative selection. Selective patterns probably include modifier MGEs, which generate induced genetic regulatory variation of polygenes controlling the selected quantitative trait in the isogenic line after HHS.
