摘要: Most ectothermal animals have variable body temperatures. Because physiological rates are temperature sensitive, an ectotherm's behavioural and ecological performance - even its fitness can be influenced by temperature. As a result, the thermal sensitivity of ectotherm is relevant to diverse issues in physiology, ecology evolution. This review formalizes emerging framework for investigating evolution sensitivity, outlines some functional genetical constraints on that evolution, summarizes comparative experimental advances this field.
