Three Quantitative Trait Loci Explain More than 60% of Variation for Chill Coma Recovery Time in a Natural Population of Drosophila ananassae

Three Quantitative Trait Loci Explain More than 60% of Variation for Chill Coma Recovery Time in a Natural Population of Drosophila ananassae

Ectothermic species such as insects are particularly vulnerable to climatic fluctuations. Nevertheless, many insects that evolved and diversified in the tropics have successfully colonized temperate regions all over the globe. To shed light on the genetic basis of cold tolerance in such species, we...
