Reduction in thermal plasticity of life history traits in response to cold selection: an experimental evolution study using Drosophila melanogaster by Rishav Roy, Rishav Roy, Aradhya Chattopadhyay, Sreebes Deb Sharma, Aharna Mondal, Payel Biswas, Payel Biswas, Shampa M. Ghosh

“…IntroductionHow selection influences phenotypic plasticity is an important question in evolutionary biology. We report an experimental evolution study that examined how prolonged selection at cold vs. warm temperature impacts the thermal plasticity of traits like reproductive output, body size, and body water content in Drosophila melanogaster.MethodsWe conducted the study on two sets of large, outbred fly populations: one maintained at the standard fly rearing temperature, i.e., 25°C, and another selected at cold temperature, i.e., 17°C, for 3.5 years. …”
