Drivers of polymorphism dynamics in pygmy grasshoppers

open access: yes, 2012
In this thesis, I used colour polymorphism in pygmy grasshoppers as a model system to study the influence of selection, developmental plasticity, mating behaviour and gene flow on patterns of phenotypic and genetic diversity within and among populations ...

Tetriginae

open access: yes, 2016
Subfamily: Tetriginae Ramber, 1838 The subfamily is characterized by the lack of clear synapomorphies. The major characters that define this paraphyletic group include: (i) filiform antennae with 12-14 segments, (ii) frons not produced forwards, (iii ...

Body size influences differently the detectabilities of colour morphs of cryptic prey

open access: yes, 2014
Body size and coloration may contribute to variation in performance and fitness among individuals, for instance by influencing vulnerability to predators.

Evolution in changing environments revealed by fire melanism in pygmy grasshopper

open access: yes, 2010
According to theory, genetic diversity can be maintained by environmental variation and the degree of genetic and phenotypic polymorphism may enhance the ability of populations to endure stress imposed by changing environments. In my thesis I used colour

Causes and consequences of niche differentiation between color morphs of pygmy grasshoppers

open access: yes, 2013
In this thesis, I used the color polymorphic pygmy grasshopper, Tetrix subulata, as a model system in order to investigate the degree of niche differentiation between alternative color morphs that are present within a single population.
