Figure 2

Survival curves of control and backcross populations. Curves depict male (A) and female (B) flies. CI13 and LI4 are the pure control and lethal line respectively. LC (lethal female × control male) and CL (control female × lethal male) denote the reciprocal F1 crosses. B1 and B2 denote the mapping populations derived from F2 males crossed to control females and lethal females respectively. Curves were established at 29°C with for control populations n = 60 and for backcross populations n > 4700 individuals. Note that the curves for CI13, LC, CL and B1 overlap in the first panel.
