Nutritional and non-nutritional food components modulate phenotypic variation but not physiological trade-offs in an insect.

Scientific reports - 12 Jul 2016

Pascacio-Villafán Carlos, Williams Trevor, Birke Andrea, Aluja Martín

Abstract excerpt

Our understanding of how food modulates animal phenotypes and mediate trade-offs between life-history traits has benefited greatly from the study of combinations of nutritional and non-nutritional food components, such as plant secondary metabolites. We used a fruit fly pest, Anastrepha ludens, to examine phenotypic variation across larval, pupal and adult stages as a function of larval food with varying nutrient...
