ABSTRACT The coevolutionary radiation of 27 species of Tetraopes longhorned beetles and their Asclepias milkweed hosts represents a classic example of adaptive evolution driven by plant chemical defences and herbivore counteradaptations. Investigations to date, however, have focused on a single species, Tetraopes tetrophthalmus, which feeds on the ...

A century of theories of balancing selection
ABSTRACT Traits that affect organismal fitness are often highly genetically variable. This genetic variation is vital for populations to adapt to their environments, but it is also surprising given that nature – after all – ‘selects’ the best genotypes at the expense of those that fall short.

Morphing Wing Designs in Commercial Aviation
With increasing demands for fuel efficiency and operational adaptability in commercial aviation}, this paper provides a systematic review and classification of morphing wing technologies, analyzing their aerodynamic performance characteristics and atmospheric condition adaptability. We first develop a comprehensive classification framework for morphing

Design of a composite morphing wing
Morphing aircraft components can increase the possibility of optimising the performance of an aircraft at various flight conditions. A morphing aircraft wing can change the wing shape to modify the lift and drag distribution on the wing surface, allowing the lift-to-drag ratio to be tailored to the desired performance.
