Adaptation to abundant low quality food improves the ability to compete for limited rich food in Drosophila melanogaster.
The rate of food consumption is a major factor affecting success in scramble competition for a limited amount of easy-to-find food. Accordingly, several studies report positive genetic correlations between larval competitive ability and feeding rate in Drosophila; both become enhanced in populations...
