The paper shows climate factors predict wMel Wolbachia frequency globally, but genomic variation reflects a recent incomplete cytoplasmic sweep rather than local adaptation.

This study shows Drosophila melanogaster pigmentation adapts to temperature, competition, diet, and microbiome, indicating a complex selective landscape.

This study shows that microbiota influences seasonal adaptation in Drosophila by driving compensatory developmental changes across seasons and locations.

This study shows that environmental factors like temperature and diet shape the microbiota composition of wild Drosophila melanogaster, linking microbiota variation to host phenotypic differentiation.

This study shows that resource variation in Drosophila melanogaster affects phenotypic and genomic evolution but is secondary to seasonal selective pressures, with adaptation to resource environments being trait-specific.

This study shows that humidity influences the genetic selection on microbiota in Drosophila melanogaster, with variation in microbiota composition linked to latitude and environmental conditions.
