Natural Diversity of Cuticular Pheromones in a Local Population of Drosophila after Laboratory Acclimation
Experimental studies of insects are often based on strains raised for many generations in constant laboratory conditions. However, laboratory acclimation could reduce species diversity reflecting adaptation to varied natural niches. Hydrocarbons covering the insect cuticle (cuticular hydrocarbons; C...
