概括
蝶的飞行时间对春季的温度很敏感,特别是在晚出现的多种的物种中. 这表明,未来气候变暖可能会显著改变美国东南部的蝶现象学.
科学领域:
- 生态生态学 生态生态学
- 气候变化生物学 气候变化生物学
- 昆虫学 昆虫学是一门学科.
背景情况:
- 气候变化与现象学变化有关,但导致灵敏度变化的因素尚不清楚.
- 在没有持续变暖趋势的地区,现象学反应的理解较差,阻碍了未来的预测.
- 蝶现象学是对气候变化生态反应的关键指标.
研究的目的:
- 为了检查成年蝶飞行开始日期的变化,以响应北卡罗来纳州的春季温度.
- 为了确定影响蝶现象敏感性的因素 (,过冬阶段,飞行开始日期).
- 在美国东南部的未来气候场景下预测潜在的现象变化.
主要方法:
- 利用了北卡罗来纳州皮埃蒙特地区38种蝶的广泛社区科学数据集.
- 分析了成年飞行开始日期与春季温度波动的年间变化.
- 研究了伏尔提尼,过冬阶段以及成年飞行开始日期对现象学敏感性的影响.
主要成果:
- 在38种蝶中,12种蝶在春季气温上升时飞行开始显著提升.
- 没有一种物种在飞行开始时表现出明显的进步,仅与年份相关.
- 一个显著的相互作用表明,晚出现的多元伏地特物种对春季温度变化最敏感.

Responses to Heat and Cold Stress
13.4K
Every organism has an optimum temperature range within which healthy growth and physiological functioning can occur. At the ends of this range, there will be a minimum and maximum temperature that interrupt biological processes.

Frequency-dependent Selection
21.9K
When the fitness of a trait is influenced by how common it is (i.e., its frequency) relative to different traits within a population, this is referred to as frequency-dependent selection. Frequency-dependent selection may occur between species or within a single species. This type of selection can either be positive—with more common phenotypes having higher fitness—or negative, with rarer phenotypes conferring increased fitness.

Background and Environment Affect Phenotype
6.5K
Although the genetic makeup of an organism plays a major role in determining the phenotype, there are also several environmental factors, such as temperature, oxygen availability, presence of mutagens, that can alter an organism’s phenotype.
An example of how genetic background affects phenotype can be seen in horses. The Extension gene in horses is responsible for their coat color. A wild-type gene (EE) produces black pigment in the coat, while a mutant gene (ee) produces red pigment. A...
