Simple Summary Drosophila suzukii, also known as the spotted-wing drosophila (SWD), is a
polyphagous insect pest of soft-skinned small fruits. SWD, similar to other insects, is affected …

Highlights•Insects exhibit plastic responses in life-history traits independently, and in
combination to temperature and nutrition.•Combinations of nutrition and temperature shape …

Understanding the mechanisms that promote coexistence between functionally analogous
non-native and native species that share similar prey is important for predicting the …

In this review, we examine mammalian body size as it reflects life history and genomic
composition, with a primary focus on canids and the domestication of the gray wolf. The …

Standing genetic variation, and capacity to adapt to environment change, will ultimately
depend on the fitness effects of mutations across the range of environments experienced by …

Temperature and food quality are the most important environmental factors determining the
performance of herbivorous insects. The objective of our study was to evaluate the …

Polyphagous insect species develop using multiple host plants. Often considered beneficial,
polyphagy can also be costly as host nutritional quality may vary. Drosophila suzukii …

The caloric content and macronutrient ratio of diet consumed is a major source of phenotypic
variation in most animal populations. While these nutritional effects have been well …

The interaction between larval host plant quality and temperature can influence the short-
term physiological rates and life-history traits of insect herbivores. These factors can vary …

Abstract investigate the genomic basis of sexual conflict in response to sexually discordant
size selection in Drosophila melanogaster. They report interesting morphological changes in …
