Direct and correlated responses to artificial selection for high and low knockdown resistance to high temperature in Drosophila buzzatii
Knockdown resistance to high temperature (KRHT) is a genetically variable trait for thermal adaptation in insects. Selection for KRHT may affect a number of fitness components as well as resistance to several forms of environmental stress. To test for heritable (co)-variation in KRHT, we examined di...
