Figure 1. Introgression Construction.
D. mauritiana P[w +]-marked chromosome segments were introgressed into a D. sechellia w background via 15 generations of backcrossing (A). The P[w +] insertion carries a mini-white gene that acts as a partially dominant visible eye-color marker for selecting heterozygous females for each backcross. Introgressions were made homozygous on the autosomes (B) and the X chromosome (C), and tested for postzygotic hybrid incompatibilities.
