Abstract:Metabolic rate is an emergent organismal trait that integrates energetic costs of living and influences species distributions and response to climate change. For ectotherms, metabolic rate is likely shaped by interactions between mitochondrial and nuclear genomes and environmental temperature. Variation in reproductive mode (e.g., asexual vs. sexual reproduction) can enhance or interfere with cross-generational transmission of these interactions, with implications for evolutionary responses to selection on sta… Show more
