Experimental Evolution and Its Role in Evolutionary Physiology

Summary
Contrary to predictions, fitness and efficiency in the constant ancestral environment of 37°C did not decrease, nor did thermal niche breadth or phenotypic plasticity increase, and selection experiments can provide a valuable approach to testing hypotheses and assumptions about the evolution of functional characters.
