Plasticity Through Canalization: The Contrasting Effect of Temperature on Trait Size and Growth in Drosophila

In most ectotherms, a reduction in developmental temperature leads to an increase in body size, a phenomenon known as the temperature size rule (TSR). In Drosophila melanogaster, temperature affects body size primarily by affecting critical size, the point in development when larvae initiate the hor...
