Fitness costs associated with different frequencies and magnitudes of temperature change in the butterfly Bicyclus anynana.

Journal of thermal biology - 1 Apr 2014

Franke Kristin, Heitmann Nadja, Tobner Anne, Fischer Klaus

Abstract excerpt

Plastic responses to changes in environmental conditions are ubiquitous and typically highly effective, but are predicted to incur costs. We here investigate the effects of different frequencies and magnitudes of temperature change in the tropical butterfly Bicyclus anynana, considering developmental (Experiment 1) and adult stage plasticity (Experiment 2). We predicted negative effects of more frequent...
