Journal ArticleDOI

Insect responses to heat: physiological mechanisms, evolution and ecological implications in a warming world.

TL;DR: This review shows that, apart from the stress response mediated by heat shock proteins, the physiological mechanisms of heat tolerance in insects remain poorly studied, and emphasizes the importance of incorporating physiological information for modelling species distributions and ecological interactions under global warming scenarios.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hybridization and the inheritance of female colour polymorphism in two ischnurid damselflies (Odonata: Coenagrionidae)

TL;DR: It is hypothesized that I. elegans genes have been incorporated into the genome of I. graellsii resulting in increased androchrome frequency in the latter species, and that hybridization between both taxa is contributing to the temporal maintenance of contrasting andro chrome frequencies in nearby populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of female colour polymorphism in damselflies: testing the hypotheses

TL;DR: The results indicate that selection is acting to maintain similar frequencies between populations at the colour locus and suggest that andro- and gynochrome females are using different strategies to control their number of matings.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular evidence for selection on female color polymorphism in the damselfly Ischnura graellsii

TL;DR: The results combined with those of previous field studies suggest that at least in some I. graellsii populations, density‐dependent mechanisms might help to prevent the loss of this polymorphism but cannot explain the similarity in morph frequencies among populations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evolutionary consequences of climate-induced range shifts in insects

TL;DR: A key issue that emerges is that climate‐induced hybridisations in insects are much more widespread than anticipated and that rising temperatures and increased anthropogenic disturbances are accelerating the process of species mixing.
