Natural variation in embryonic thermal tolerance among populations of Drosophila melanogaster along a thermal gradient
Meeting Abstract 130-6 Thursday, Jan. 7 14:45 Natural variation in embryonic thermal tolerance among populations of Drosophila melanogaster along a thermal gradient LOCKWOOD, B. L.; University of Vermont Brent.Lockwood@uvm.edu http://www.uvm.edu/~bllockwo/ Early development is predicted to be canalized to produce discrete phenotypes even in the face of environmental perturbation. Contrary to this paradigm, we find that there is […]

Beyond thermal performance curves Modeling time-dependent effects of thermal stress on ectotherm growth rates
Meeting Abstract 130-3 Thursday, Jan. 7 14:00 Beyond thermal performance curves: Modeling time-dependent effects of thermal stress on ectotherm growth rates KINGSOLVER, J.G*; WOODS, H.A.; Univ. of North Carolina; Univ. of Montana jgking@bio.unc.edu Thermal performance curves have been widely used to model the ecological responses of ectotherms to variable thermal environments and climate change. Such models ignore […]
A conceptual framework for understanding thermal constraints on ectotherm activity
Meeting Abstract 130-4 Thursday, Jan. 7 14:15 A conceptual framework for understanding thermal constraints on ectotherm activity GUNDERSON, A.R.; San Francisco State University alexrgunderson@gmail.com https://sites.google.com/site/alexrgunderson/home Activity budgets influence the expression of life-history traits as well as population dynamics. For ectotherms, a major constraint on activity is environmental temperature. Nonetheless, we currently lack a comprehensive conceptual framework for […]
