摘要

Wolbachia, a bacterial endosymbiont of diverse arthropods, affects its host's reproduction and so is consequential for its host's fitness. In Drosophila simulans, Wolbachia increases embryonic mortality in crosses of infected males with uninfected females, possibly by manipulating the proteins of the host gametes. Preliminary data suggests these proteins include at least 2 families of heat-shock proteins, Hsp70 and Hsp90. Drosophila larvae live within necrotic fruit, in which larvae can experiencethermal stress that induces Hsp expression. Infected male D. simulans, if exposed to laboratory heat shock as larvae, father more viable offspring than unexposed controls. Also, infected male D. simulans, if allowed to copulate beforehand, father more viable offspring than virgin controls of identical age. These 2 mechanisms of restoring the reproductive compatibility of Wolbachia-infected Drosophila could affect the fitness of wild D. simulans; these effects were documented through modelling and experimental study of natural populations and their thermal environment. This research exemplified how evolutionary physiology may extend far beyond the classical disciplinary boundaries of physiology and evolutionary biology.
