Flight during oviposition reduces maternal egg provisioning and influences offspring development in Pararge aegeria (L.)
2010-03-01
Abstract excerpt
As a result of increased habitat fragmentation in anthropogenic landscapes, flying insects may be required to travel over larger distances in search of resources such as suitable host plants for oviposition. The oögenesis-flight syndrome hypothesis predicts that physiological constraints caused by an overlap in the resources used by thoracic muscles during flight and during oögenesis (e.g. carbohydrates, lipids an...
