The “sequential cues hypothesis”: A conceptual model to explain host location and ranking by polyphagous herbivores
R Silva, AR Clarke - Insect Science, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Successfully locating a host plant is crucial for an insect herbivore to feed and/or oviposit.
However, locating a host within a complex environment that may contain an array of different …

Two novel venom proteins underlie divergent parasitic strategies between a generalist and a specialist parasite
J Huang, J Chen, G Fang, L Pang, S Zhou… - Nature …, 2021 - nature.com
Parasitoids are ubiquitous in natural ecosystems. Parasitic strategies are highly diverse
among parasitoid species, yet their underlying genetic bases are poorly understood. Here …

A comprehensive phylogeny helps clarify the evolutionary history of host breadth and lure response in the Australian Dacini fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae)
Abstract The tribe Dacini (Diptera: Tephritidae) contains over 930 recognised species and
has been widely studied due to the economic importance of some taxa, such as the Oriental …

Why so many polyphagous fruit flies (Diptera: Tephritidae)? A further contribution to the 'generalism'debate
AR Clarke - Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2017 - academic.oup.com
It has been suggested that generalist herbivorous insects are an evolutionary 'improbability'.
However, many species of tephritid fruit flies are generalists utilising larval hosts across two …

Fruit‐breeding drosophilids (Diptera) in the Neotropics: playing the field and specialising in generalism?
1. Species of Drosophilidae are frequently used as model organisms, but their relationships
with the environment, particularly in immature stages, remain poorly known. 2. This is the …
