Adaptation to Leaf Traits of Individual Trees in a Forest Appears Rare in Caterpillars [PDF]

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 3, March 2025.
We performed a reciprocal transplant experiment in which we reared half of the caterpillars collected from large oak trees in a forest on leaves from the home tree, and the rest on leaves of the other oak trees. We found that in one species, the growth rate was higher on leaves of the home tree, indicating adaptation to the individual trees.
