Latitudinal clines in the timing and temperature‐sensitivity of photoperiodic reproductive diapause in Drosophila montana

Abstract: Reproductive diapause is a primary mechanism used by arthropods to synchronize their life cycle with seasonal changes in temperate regions. Our study species, Drosophila montana, represents the northern insect species where flies enter reproductive diapause under short day conditions and where the precise timing of diapause is crucial for both survival and offspring production. We have studied clinal variation in the critical day length for female diapause induction (CDL) and their overall susceptibility to en… Show more

“…However, females’ chill coma resistance (CT min ) showed a significant variation only in D. montana , where it was associated with latitudinally varying temperature (PC2) instead of photoperiod (latitude). Also this association is logical since non-diapausing D. montana females may face quite cold temperatures during the late spring and early autumn in the northern parts of the species distribution [72, 74]. Chill coma recovery time (CCRT) of both species was associated with photoperiod (latitude), as hypothesized.…”

“…1) with raster package v. 2.8-19 [94]. In addition, we obtained growing season length (days) for each site from article by [74] and www.weatherbase.com. Growing season is defined as the average number of days per year when the average daily temperature is at least 5 °C.…”

“…The fi rst indication of this was provided by Thiele (1977) who showed 'positive' resonance effects (multiple peaks of high diapause incidence in NH experiments) in a strain of the beetle Pterostichus nigrita in Germany (51°N) but 'negative' hourglass-like responses in a strain from Swedish Lapland (64 to 66°N). Hourglass-like NH responses have now been recorded in several species of Drosophila in Finland including D. ezoana (Vaze & Helfrich-Förster, 2016) and D. montana (Kauranan et al, 2019;Tyukmaeva et al, 2020).…”
