Rapid brain development and reduced neuromodulator titres correlate with host shifts in Rhagoletis pomonella

Host shifts are considered a key generator of insect biodiversity. For insects, adaptation to new host plants often requires changes in larval/pupal development and adult behavioural preference toward new hosts. Neurochemicals play key roles in both development and behaviour and therefore provide a...
