Spatial distribution and inbreeding in Tetranychus urticae
In group living, species spatial distribution results from responses to environmental heterogeneity and/or mutual interactions between individuals. These mutual interactions can be regulated by genetic and/or epigenetic factors. In this study, we focus on genetic factors and investigate how the spatial distribution of some individuals colonizing a new ...
