The paper shows that environmental cues reduce selection against harmful alleles in seed beetles by enabling adaptive maternal care through learning.

The paper tests how temperature affects genomic predictions of adaptation by evolving beetles under hot and cold conditions, finding faster phenotypic evolution at hot temperatures but less genomic repeatability.

The paper models how climate warming affects insect pest life-history traits and agricultural impact using thermodynamics and life-history theory, finding increased pest damage under warming.

This study examines how germline maintenance varies with reproductive timing in seed beetles, finding that early-reproducing females show peak maintenance at youth while late-reproducing females exhibit the opposite pattern.
