Sex-Specific Weight Loss Mediates Sexual Size Dimorphism in Drosophila melanogaster
The selective pressures leading to the evolution of Sexual Size Dimorphism (SSD) have been well studied in many organisms, yet, the underlying developmental mechanisms are poorly understood. By generating a complete growth profile by sex in Drosophila melanogaster, we describe the sex-specific patte...
