Microevolution in action: genetic markers of climatic change
The introduction and rapid spread of Drosophila
subobscura in the New World three decades ago has provided a unique opportunity
for determining the predictability and rate of evolution of geographic
clines. Furthermore, comparisons of recent with historical samples of
chromosome inversion frequencies provide opportunities to determine whether
genetic change is tracking climate change in natural populations.
