Fundamental Evolutionary Limits in Ecological Traits Drive Drosophila Species Distributions
Abstract
Adaptive Limits: Species adapt to a changing environment as a result of selection acting on current genetic variation. However, the degree of variation underlying traits that can respond to selection is unclear. Kellermann et al. (p. 1244 ; see the Perspective by Merilä ) investigated the degree of genetic variation available to fruit flies for cold and desiccation tolerance. Species from the tropics tended to have low variability for these traits, while flies from more temperate climates showed higher levels of variation. However, overall genetic variability did not differ, suggesting that the tropical species lacked the alleles that confer tolerance to these environmental extremes and restrict their potential range.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
