The genetic variabilities of sternopleural and abdominal bristle numbers existing in local natural populations were assessed. Using second chromosome lines of Drosophila melanogaster extracted from three natural populations in Japan (the Ishigakijima, Ogasawara and Aomori populations), experiments were conducted to estimate the components of genetic variances, additive and dominance variances. The following results were obtained: For both sternopleural and abdominal bristle numbers, the additive genetic variances (σ2A) were much larger than the dominance variances (σ2D) especially in the southern populations. For example, in the Ishigakijima population, for females sternopleural bristle numbers of the inversion-free chromosome group, the additive and dominance variances were estimated to be 1.2554 ± 0.2034 and 0.0552 ± 0.0180, respectively. The magnitudes of the estimates of additive genetic variances were nearly equal from north to south. By comparing the additive genetic variances of the inversion-free chromosome group with those of the In(2L)t-carrying chromosome group, it was inferred that sufficient number of generations to achieve the equilibrium state has not passed since the introduction of a single or a small number of the In(2L)t-carrymg chromosomes to the Ishigakijima population.
