This study shows that dietary ethanol affects feeding behavior, flight performance, and mating success in the butterfly Bicyclus anynana.

This study examines the ability of diamondback moth to adapt to cardenolide-defended Erysimum cheiranthoides, finding limited adaptation despite existing genetic variation and phenotypic plasticity.

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.

This study examines how temperature and food availability interact to influence wing pigmentation in Bicyclus anynana butterflies, showing genotype-specific thermal plasticity and nutritional effects.

This study examines how Erysimum cheiranthoides performs under herbivore attack and competition, finding that it escapes herbivory but suffers from competitive disadvantage.

The paper improves the chromosome-level genome assembly of the Glanville fritillary butterfly using SMRT sequencing and a linkage map, increasing the assembly size by 94 Mb.

The paper examines how day and night temperature fluctuations affect thermally plastic traits in Bicyclus anynana, finding additive and dominance effects on different traits.
