However, we measured development time at 28°, using embryos from parents reared at 25°.
We measured development time, survival, pupation height, and larval metabolic rates across a range of nonstressful development temperatures (16° 28°) in Drosophila mitochondrial nuclear genotypes that exhibit synergistic epistasis.
First, we perform a controlled experiment to measure tool development time and correctness of the developed tools, comparing DiSL with a prevailing, state-of-the-art instrumentation library.
Random mating avoided assortative mating (e.g., early with early, late with late), which can bias heritability estimates, although there is no necessary correlation between timing of emergence in adults and the phenotypic trait measured, juvenile development time.
We conducted a bibliometric baseline measurement to assess the current situation, to be able to measure developments over time.
For each egg, the number of days between being laid and hatching was recorded and used as a measure of embryonic development time.
Here, we constructed second chromosome substitution lines from natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster from an altitudinal cline, and measured egg-adult development time for each line.
We measured survival and development time of ancestral saline and derived freshwater populations in response to food concentration (700 and 14 000 cells/mL) and salinity (fresh water 75 μS/cm, brackish 1 PSU) in a 2 × 2 factorial design.
Students suggest a wide range of dependent parameters to measure, including survival rate, development time, adult size and adult life span.
Larval development time was measured by placing L1 larvae into food vials and counting pupae as they pupated.
