Abstract excerpt
Although numerous studies have indicated that diapause is heritable and phenotypically plastic, none of them has examined the quantitative genetic basis of this plasticity. In this paper we report such an analysis for egg diapause in the cricket Allonemobius socius, the induction of which appears to be largely determined by the mother. We analysed the quantitative genetic basis of the phenotypically plastic...
