Natural variation in the expression of the heat-shock protein HSP70 in a population of Drosophila melanogaster and its correlation with tolerance of ecologically relevant thermal stress

Although Hsp70, the principal inducible heat-shock protein of Drosophila melanogaster, has received intense scrutiny in laboratory strains, its variation within natural populations and the consequences of such variation for thermotolerance are unknown. We have characterized variation in first-instar...
