Abstract excerpt
The flight response of the parasitic wasp Cotesia glomerata (L.) to semiochemicals from a plant-host complex is subject to genetic variation. The significance of additive genetic variance for the odour-guided behaviour has been demonstrated by bidirectional selection. In order to understand the potential and constraints for phenotypic evolution in olfactory response under the pressure of natural selection, this...
