Developmental acclimation affects clinal variation in stress resistance traits in Drosophila buzzatii.
Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 May 2010
Sarup P, Loeschcke V
Abstract excerpt
Patterns of clinal genetic variation in Drosophila are often characterized after rearing at constant temperatures. However, clinal patterns might change after acclimation if populations differ in their plastic response to fluctuating environments. We studied longevity, starvation and heat knock-down resistance after development at either constant or fluctuating temperatures in nine Drosophila buzzatii populations...
