A highly inbred line of Drosophila melanogaster was subdivided into 25 replicate sublines, which were independently maintained for 100 generations with 10 pairs of unselected flies per generation. The polygenic mutation rate (VM) for two quantitative traits, abdominal and sternopleural bristle number, was estimated from divergence among sublines at 10 generation intervals from generations 30‐100, and from response of each line to divergent selection after more than 65 generations of mutation accumulation. Estimates of VM averaged over males and females both from divergence among lines and from response to selection within lines were 3.3 × 10‐3 VE for abdominal bristles and 1.5 × 10‐3 VE for sternopleural bristles, where VE is the environmental variance. The actual rate of production of mutations affecting these traits may be considerably higher if the traits are under stabilizing selection, and if mutations affecting bristle number have deleterious effects on fitness. There was a substantial component of variance for sex × mutant effect interaction and the sublines evolved highly significant mutational variation in sex dimorphism of abdominal bristle number. Pleiotropic effects on sex dimorphism may be a general property of mutations at loci determining bristle number.
