Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, Volume 173, Issue 12, Page 1278-1284, December 2025.Initial population size and resource availability are key factors regulating population dynamics, with growth rates typically declining as populations increase but rising with greater resources. In maize weevils, however, we found an unexpected negative effect of resource availability on intrinsic growth rates, contrary to conventional expectations. We
