Journal ArticleDOI
Ecology and behavior of first instar larval lepidoptera
TL;DR: Experimental and manipulative studies are vital for an understanding of theories linking female oviposition behavior with larval survival, plant defense theory, and population dynamics, as well as modern crop resistance breeding programs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating the economic cost of one of the world's major insect pests, Plutella xylostella (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae): just how long is a piece of string?
TL;DR: The analysis suggests that greater efforts at implementation of even basic integrated pest management would reduce insecticide inputs considerably, reducing negative environmental impacts and saving many hundreds of millions of dollars annually.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Biology and Ecology of Heliothis-Armigera (hubner) and Heliothis-Punctigera Wallengren (lepidoptera, Noctuidae) in Australia - What Do We Know
TL;DR: The taxonomy and identification of Heliothis armigera and H. punctigera, their distribution and host plants in Australia, the effect of host plant on reproduction and on the development and survival of immature stages, their movements, population biology and dynamics, and their control are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This work explores several key evolutionary principles under four main themes: variation, selection, connectivity, and eco‐evolutionary dynamics and illustrates their use in addressing applied problems.
Journal ArticleDOI
The genetics of monarch butterfly migration and warning colouration

TL;DR: The history of the monarch's evolutionary origin and global dispersal is uncovered, the strongest signatures of selection associated with migration centre on flight muscle function, resulting in greater flight efficiency among migratory monarchs, and that variation in monarch warning colouration is controlled by a single myosin gene not previously implicated in insect pigmentation.
