Evolution of reproductive traits have no apparent life-history associated cost in populations ofDrosophila melanogasterselected for cold shock resistance
Abstract:AbstractIn insect species like Drosophila melanogaster, the ability to evolve greater resistance or evolution of certain traits under specific environmental conditions leads to energy trade-offs with other important life-history traits. A number of studies from multiple fields have documented the life-history associated cost. However, no known studies have assessed the life-history associated cost with evolved reproductive traits and increase egg viab… Show more
