To address this, patterns of canalization and trait correlation were investigated under the individual and joint effects of the introgression of a loss‐of‐function allele of the Distal‐less gene and high‐temperature stress on a panel of iso‐female lines. Variation was examined for number of sex comb teeth and the length of the basi‐tarsus on the pro‐thoracic leg of male Drosophila melanogaster. I demonstrate that whereas there is evidence for trait canalization, there is no evidence to support the hypothesis of the evolution of genetic canalization as a response to microenvironmental canalization. Furthermore, I demonstrate that although there are genetic correlations between these traits, there is no association between their measures of canalization. I discuss the prospects of the evolutionary lability of the Distal‐less gene within the context of changes in genetic variation and covariation.}, number={2}, journal={EVOLUTION & DEVELOPMENT}, author={Dworkin, I}, year={2005}, pages={89–100} } @article{dworkin_palsson_gibson_2005, title={Replication of an egfr-wing shape association in a wild-caught cohort of Drosaphila melanogaster}, volume={169}, ISSN={["1943-2631"]}, DOI={10.1534/genetics.104.035766}, abstractNote={Abstract}, number={4}, journal={GENETICS}, author={Dworkin, I and Palsson, A and Gibson, G}, year={2005}, month={Apr}, pages={2115–2125} } @article{palsson_dodgson_dworkin_gibson_2005, title={Tests for the replication of an association between Egfr and natural variation in Drosophila melanogaster wing morphology}, volume={6}, journal={BMC Genetics}, author={Palsson, A. and Dodgson, J. and Dworkin, I. and Gibson, G.}, year={2005} } @article{dworkin_2005, title={Towards a genetic architecture of cryptic genetic variation and genetic assimilation: The contribution of K.G.

Perspective evolutionary developmental biology and the problem of variation.Evolution. 2000; 54: 1079-1091PubMed Google Scholar]. In an evolutionary context, this means characterizing the molecular polymorphisms that modify the penetrance and expressivity of perturbed traits. A survey of association between 267 SNPs in almost 11 kb of the D. melanogaster Egfr and the degree of eye roughening due to a gain-of-function EgfrE1 allele crossed into 210 isogenic wild-type lines provides evidence that a handful of synonymous substitutions supply cryptic variation for photoreceptor determination. Ten sites exceed Bonferroni threshold for association in two sets of crosses to different EgfrE1 backgrounds including a particularly significant cluster of sites in tight linkage disequilibrium toward the 3′ end of the coding region. Epistatic interaction of this cluster with one other site enhances the expressivity of this haplotype. Replication of the strongest associations with an independent sample of 302 phenotypically extreme individuals derived from 1000 crosses of EgfrE1 to freshly trapped males was achieved using modified case-control and transmission-disequilibrium tests. A tendency for the rarer alleles to have more disrupted eye development suggests that mutation-selection balance is a possible mechanism contributing to maintaining cryptic variation for Egfr.}, number={21}, journal={CURRENT BIOLOGY}, author={Dworkin, I and Palsson, A and Birdsall, K and Gibson, G}, year={2003}, month={Oct}, pages={1888–1893} }
