The influence of developmental diet on reproduction and metabolism in Drosophila

The influence of developmental diet on reproduction and metabolism in Drosophila

Abstract Background The adaptive significance of phenotypic changes elicited by environmental conditions experienced early in life has long attracted attention in evolutionary biology. In this study, we used Drosophila melanogaster to test whether the developmental diet produces phenotypes better ad...
