Long-term evolution experiments fully reveal the potential for thermal adaptation

This study shows that long-term thermal adaptation in Drosophila populations occurs slowly and varies by population origin.

Biogeographical history shapes evolution of reproduction in a global warming scenario

This study shows that northern Drosophila subobscura populations improve performance at higher temperatures over generations, while southern populations decline, suggesting limited evolutionary potential under global warming.

No evidence for short-term evolutionary response to a warming environment in Drosophila

This study shows no significant evolutionary adaptation to warming in Drosophila after nine generations, with historical background and trait-specific effects influencing thermal responses.

High developmental temperature leads to low reproduction despite adult temperature

This study examines how developmental temperature affects reproductive performance in Drosophila subobscura, finding that high developmental temperatures reduce reproduction regardless of adult temperature.

How phenotypic convergence arises in experimental evolution

This study examines whether initially differentiated Drosophila subobscura populations converge to similar adaptive states after 60 generations in a common environment, finding persistent differentiation despite convergence patterns.
