Selection for narrow gate of emergence results in correlated sex-specific changes in life history of Drosophila melanogaster

Selection for narrow gate of emergence results in correlated sex-specific changes in life history of Drosophila melanogaster

Since the ability to time rhythmic behaviours in accordance with cyclic environments is likely to confer adaptive advantage to organisms, the underlying clocks are believed to be selected for stability in timekeeping over evolutionary time scales. Here we report the results of a study aimed at asses...
