Discontinuous gas exchange exhibition is a heritable trait in speckled cockroaches Nauphoeta cinerea.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Jul 2013

Schimpf N G, Matthews P G D, White C R

Abstract excerpt

The regulation of insect respiratory gas exchange has long been an area of interest. In particular, the reason why insects from at least five orders exhibit patterns of gas exchange that include regular periods of spiracular closure has been the source of much controversy. Three adaptive hypotheses propose that these discontinuous gas-exchange cycles (DGCs) evolved to either limit water loss across respiratory...
