Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.This study makes two key contributions to understanding thermal plasticity in ectotherms. First, we reveal non‐linear heat tolerance plasticity across species, challenging traditional linear assumptions. Second, we demonstrate that even subtle acclimation effects observed in the laboratory can significantly boost survival in natural environments ...

Recent selective sweeps in North American Drosophila melanogaster show signatures of soft sweeps [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Rapid adaptation has been observed in numerous organisms in response to selective pressures, such as the application of pesticides and the presence of pathogens. When rapid adaptation is driven by rare alleles from the standing genetic variation or by a high population rate of de novo adaptive mutation, positive selection should commonly generate soft ...

Insect Science, EarlyView.Abstract Knowing how environmental conditions affect performance traits in pest insects is important to improve pest management strategies. It can be informative for monitoring, but also for control programs where insects are mass‐reared, and field‐released.

Rapid evolution of ecological sexual dimorphism driven by resource competition
Ecology Letters, Volume 26, Issue 1, Page 124-131, January 2023., 2023 In an evolution experiment, I find that sexual dimorphism in diet evolves rapidly in response to resource competition, suggesting a role for ecology in driving the evolution of sexual dimorphism. Abstract Sex differences in ecologically important traits are common in animals and plants, and prompted Darwin to first propose an ecological cause of sexual

Sex Pheromone Mediates Resource Partitioning Between Drosophila melanogaster and D. suzukii
Evolutionary ApplicationsThe spotted‐wing drosophila, Drosophila suzukii and the cosmopolitan vinegar fly D. melanogaster feed on soft fruit and berries and widely overlap in geographic range. The presence of D. melanogaster reduces egg‐laying in D.

Diet acts on sexual behavior development in a male moth
Insect Science, EarlyView.Drastic changes are observed during sexual maturation characterized by the reproductive system development concomitantly to the sexual behavior ontogenesis. These modifications are under the control of internal and external factors such as food. Knowing that sexual maturation requires considerable energetic investment, diet has been shown to affect ...
