The ability of an organism to respond to nutritional stress can be a plastic character under the action of natural selection, affecting several characteristics, including life history and energy storage. The genus Drosophila (Diptera; Drosophilidae) presents high variability regarding natural resource exploration. However, most works on this theme have studied the model species D.

The differential exploration of natural resources by species has effects on fitness, with changes in life history and metabolic traits. There is a lack of research on the variation in these characters in different environments in Neotropical species of . The purpose of this study was to evaluate the profile of life history traits, including viability, development time, and dry weight (as a measure of size), as well as the metabolic pools of triglyceride, glycogen, and protein, in populations from the southern and southeastern regions of Brazil of four Neotropical species: , of the subgenus, and , , and , which belong to the subgenus.

To sustain growth in changing nutrient conditions, cells reorganize outputs of metabolic networks and appropriately reallocate resources. Signaling by reversible protein phosphorylation can control such metabolic adaptations. In contrast to kinases, the functions of phosphatases that enable metabolic adaptation as glucose depletes are poorly studied.
