Latitudinal and voltinism compensation shape thermal reaction norms for growth rate.
Latitudinal variation in thermal reaction norms of key fitness traits may inform about the response of populations to climate warming, yet their adaptive nature and evolutionary potential are poorly known. We assessed the contribution of quantitative genetic, neutral genetic and environmental effects to thermal reaction norms of growth rate for populations of the damselfly Ischnura elegans. Amo...
متن کاملThermal reaction norms for caterpillar growth depend on diet
Hypothesis: Interactions between diet and temperature affect reaction norms for growth rate in ectotherms. Organisms: Full-sib families of the small cabbage white butterfly, Pieris rapae, derived from field populations near Seattle, WA, USA. Methods: We used a split sib-family experimental design with two food treatments (collard leaves and artificial diet) and four test temperatures (11, 23, 3...
متن کاملEvolution of thermal reaction norms for growth rate and body size in ectotherms: an introduction to the symposium.
Although the size of an organism is influenced by many features of its environment, the relationship between temperature and body size has captivated generations of biologists. From the renowned observations by Bergmann (1847) to the phylogenetic comparative studies by our contemporaries (e.g., Ashton et al., 2000), evidence of a widespread relationship between temperature and adult body size h...
متن کاملVariation, selection and heritability of thermal reaction norms for juvenile growth in Orchesella cincta (Collembola: Entomobryidae)
Genetic variation for thermal plasticity plays an important role in the success or failure of a species with respect to the colonization of different thermal habitats and the ability to deal with climatic change. The aim of this paper is to study the relative contribution of the additive and non-additive components of genetic variation for the slope of the temperature reaction norm for juvenile...
متن کاملThermal Reaction Norms and the Scale of Temperature Variation: Latitudinal Vulnerability of Intertidal Nacellid Limpets to Climate Change
The thermal reaction norms of 4 closely related intertidal Nacellid limpets, Antarctic (Nacella concinna), New Zealand (Cellana ornata), Australia (C. tramoserica) and Singapore (C. radiata), were compared across environments with different temperature magnitude, variability and predictability, to test their relative vulnerability to different scales of climate warming. Lethal limits were measu...
