摘要
Differences in behaviour between chromosomal races are a potential factor promoting fixation of chromosomal rearrangements, which have an adverse effect on fertility. In this study differences in trappability between wild-derived mice segregating for two Robertsonian translocations were tested. Heterozygotes for two Rb translocations were caught later than other karyotypes in an enclosed population but not in free-living populations. The evolutionary consequences of reduced trappability of multiple heterozygotes remain unknown. © 1993 The Association for the Study of Animal Behaviour.
