Larval growth rate affects wing shape more than eyespot size in the seasonally polyphenic butterfly Melanitis leda

F. Molleman, E. M. Moore, S. Halali, D. Halali, U. Kodandaramaiah, E. van Bergen, P. M. Brakefield, V. Oostra

The study examines how larval growth rate influences adult wing shape and eyespot size in Melanitis leda, finding stronger effects on wing shape than eyespot size, with sex-specific patterns.

Alternative developmental and transcriptomic responses to host plant water limitation in a butterfly metapopulation

A. Kahilainen, V. Oostra, P. Somervuo, G. Minard, M. Saastamoinen

The paper examines developmental and transcriptomic responses to water-limited host plants in a butterfly metapopulation, revealing heritable variability in plasticity.

Complex multi-trait responses to multivariate environmental cues in a seasonal butterfly

P. Singh, E. v. Bergen, O. Brattström, D. Osbaldeston, P. M. Brakefield, V. Oostra

This study examines how temperature and host plant quality interact to affect life-history traits in the butterfly Bicyclus anynana, revealing complex temperature and sex-dependent effects.

Extensive phenotypic plasticity in a seasonal butterfly limits potential for evolutionary responses to environmental change

V. Oostra, M. Saastamoinen, B. J. Zwaan, C. W. Wheat

The paper examines phenotypic plasticity in a seasonal butterfly and finds that limited genetic variation for plasticity may restrict evolutionary responses to climate change.
