The rapid pace of anthropogenic global change threatens global biodiversity and the integrity of ecosystems. It is now paramount to understand how organisms can adapt to these changes. Here, I review the literature on the genetic nature of stress responses in Drosophila and bacteria. Then I test how yeast populations adapted to a particular stressor, salt, can resist related stressors which they have not experienced in their recent past, freezing and sorbitol. We found that lines adapted to high salinity did not show increased resistance to sorbitol and freezing. Finally, again with yeast subjected to high salinity, I exposed populations to extremely stressful and continually deteriorating conditions to investigate how adaptation occurs. We...
