Can artificially selected phenotypes influence a component of field fitness? Thermal selection and fly performance under thermal extremes.

Proceedings. Biological sciences - 22 Mar 2007

Kristensen Torsten Nygaard, Loeschcke Volker, Hoffmann Ary A

Abstract excerpt

Artificially selected lines are widely used to investigate the genetic basis of quantitative traits and make inferences about evolutionary trajectories. Yet, the relevance of selected traits to field fitness is rarely tested. Here, we assess the relevance of thermal stress resistance artificially selected in the laboratory to one component of field fitness by investigating the likelihood of adult Drosophila...
