Table 1 Predicted and observed response to selection for increased warming tolerance for mechanisms hypothesized to limit warming tolerance
From: Evolution of warming tolerance alters physiology and life history traits in zebrafish
Limiting mechanism | Predicted response | Observed response |
|---|---|---|
Oxygen supply capacity | Increased aerobic scope (Fig. 1a) | No (Fig. 3c) |
Decreased Q10 (Fig. 1b) | No (Fig. 3d) | |
Thermal optimum of molecules | Decreased CTmin (Fig. 1c) | No (Fig. 2b) |
Heat shock response | Increased CTmin (Fig. 1d) | Yes (Fig. 2b) |
Increased HSP levels | No (Fig. 4h) |
