Comparison of Static and Dynamic Assays When Quantifying Thermal Plasticity of Drosophilids
Numerous assays are used to quantify thermal tolerance of arthropods including dynamic ramping and static knockdown assays. The dynamic assay measures a critical temperature while the animal is gradually heated, whereas the static assay measures the time to knockdown at a constant temperature. Previ...
