Table 2 Comparison of frequency differences of the eleven putatively adaptive and the three intermediate TEs, between the locally two abutting slopes of EC (detailes in Table 1), with the TE frequency differences between the mesic and tropical climates in Australia and in North America in D. melanogaster populations [39]

  1. aThe functions are selected from Table 3 in [39]
  2. Abbreviations:
  3. M Higher frequency in the mesic cooler micro climate, i.e., in the local north-facing slope (NFS = ES) of EC, or globally in South Australia or in northern North America
  4. T Higher frequency in the ecologically tropic warmer microclimate, i.e., in the local south-facing slope (SFS = AS) of EC, or globally in North Australia or in southern North America (Florida)
  5. ? = Function of the regulated locus is unknown
  6. Significance: @ = p < 0.1; * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.01; *** = p < 0.001
