An Analysis of Genetic Structure in the Monarch Butterfly, Danaus plexippus L. [PDF]
Evolution, 1978 The genetic structure of a set of populations is a consequence of the patterns of mating within, and the magnitude of gene exchange among the populations of interest. Mathematically, this can be expressed as the deviation from Hardy-Weinberg proportions within, and the amount of differentiation or variance in allele frequencies among populations.

Insects, 2018 Some taxa have adopted the strategy of mimicry to protect themselves from predation. Butterflies are some of the best representatives used to study mimicry, with the monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae) a well-known model.

Environment and Host Genetics Drive Infection Outcomes in a Butterfly Host, but Do Not Interact With Each Other. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThis study examined how host genetics and larval food plant environment influence parasite infection outcomes in monarch butterflies (Danaus plexippus) infected with the protozoan Ophryocystis elektroscirrha. We tested for genotype × environment interactions on infection status, infection burden, lifespan, and wing size.

Hearing in Caterpillars of the Monarch Butterfly (Danaus plexippus)
Journal of Experimental Biology, 2019 Many species of caterpillars have been reported to respond to sound, but there has been limited formal study of what sounds they hear, how they hear them, and how they respond to them. Here we report on hearing in caterpillars of the Monarch butterfly (Danaus plexippus).

Karyotypes versus Genomes: The Nymphalid Butterflies Melitaea cinxia, Danaus plexippus, and D. chrysippus [PDF]
, 2017 The number of sequenced lepidopteran genomes is increasing rapidly. However, the corresponding assemblies rarely represent whole chromosomes and generally also lack the highly repetitive W sex chromosome. Knowledge of the karyotypes can facilitate genome
