Data and coding files for: Within population plastic responses to combined thermal-nutritional stress differ from those in response to single stressors, and are genetically independent across traits in both males and females

Phenotypic plasticity helps animals to buffer the effects of increasing thermal and nutritional stress created by climate change. Plastic responses to single and combined stressors can vary among genetically diverged populations. However, less is known about how plasticity in response to combined stress varies among individuals within a population or whether such variation changes across life-history traits. This is important because individual variation within populations shapes population-level responses to environmental change. Here, we used isogenic lines of Drosophila melanogaster to assess plasticity of egg-to-adult viability and sex-specific body size for combinations of two temperatures (25°C or 28°C) and three diets (standard diet, low caloric diet, or low protein:carbohydrate ratio diet). Our results reveal substantial within-population genetic variation in plasticity for egg-to-adult viability and wing size in response to combined thermal-nutritional stress. This genetic vari..., Details are in the main article., , # Data and coding files for Within population plastic responses to combined thermal-nutritional stress differ from those in response to single stressors, and are genetically independent across traits in both males and females.

## Description of the data and file structure

We investigated within-population variation in plastic responses of viability and wing size to combined thermal-nutritional stress. We also examined the genetic correlations between viability and wing size, as well as the cross-sex genetic correlation in wing size.

This repository contains the following data and scripts:

* **Raw data of wings** (\".tif\" files)
* **Wing area data** (\".csv\", generated by CoordGen8)
* **Viability data** (\".csv\")
* **R markdown scripts** (\".Rmd\") containing code for data analyses and visualizations
* **Data generated from analyses** (\".Rdata\") for further analyses and visualizations
