CHROMOSOMAL INVERSIONS IN ‘DROSOPHILA SUBOBSCURA’: THE CASE OF SERBIAN POPULATIONS Francesc Mestres Goran Zivanovic Conxita Arenas Comunicación adaptation climate change natural selection chromosome inversion Drosophila subobscura It is well known that chromosomal inversions in natural populations of the species Drosophila subobscura are adaptations to changes in the environment. It has been observed that inversions change in frequency over time and that they are so far following the pattern expected given the global warming of our planet. These results have been brought to light by our research on Serbian populations of D. subobscura. We found that inversion-related changes in chromosomal polymorphisms depended on the season of the year and in the long term (10-15 year periods) they followed what we would expect given global warming. Therefore, chromosomal inversions in this species are good indicators of climate change and can help us to study how organisms adapt to it. 2016 artículo científico 2174-3487 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=511754471009 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=5117 Mètode Science Studies Journal application/pdf Universitat de València Mètode Science Studies Journal (España) Num.6 |
