Growth temperature and phenotypic plasticity in two Drosophila sibling species: probable adaptive changes in flight capacities

In the sibling species Drosophila melanogaster and D. simulans, growth and development at constant temperatures, from 12 to 30 °C, resulted in extensive variations of adult size and flight parameters with significant differences between species. Changes in body weight, thorax length and wing length...
