Landscape effects on the thermotolerance of carabid beetles and the role of behavioral thermoregulation

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    Such seasonal adaptation is incurred via adaptive phenotypic plasticity and may encompass short-term changes to the physiology or behavior of the individual that act to enhance thermotolerance (May, 1979; Overgaard and amp; MacMillan, 2017), to longer-term transgenerational plasticity (MassambaN`Siala et_al, 2014; Walsh et_al, 2014). Studies into the plasticity of thermotolerance are commonly performed at the local scale (e_g, Powell and amp; Bale, 2005, 2006; Sinclair and amp; Chown, 2006; Andrew et_al, 2011; Renault et_al, 2012). Plasticity in physiological thermotolerance, although adaptive in winter when individuals are exposed to cold stress, becomes . . .
