Variation in thorax length, wing length and sternopleural bristle number was examined in Drosophila melanogaster reared in stressful and nonstressful environments using paternal half-sib design. Low concentration of yeast in the medium was used as a stress Factor. Phenotypic variation of thorax length and wing length was higher under poor nutrition than in the control: in bristle number, phenotypic variation was relatively stable regardless of the environment. Heritability of all the traits analyzed was generally lower under nutritional stress. Heritability changes in thorax length and wing length were mainly due to an increase in the environmental variance under stress, whereas in bristle number, stress resulted in a decrease in genetic variation. Genetic variance in thorax length was higher under poor nutrition. in wing length, no difference in genetic variance between environments was Found.
