Benefits and costs of aphid phenological bet-hedging strategies by Jens Joschinski

“…Intended readership I am looking for a host institute to research bet-hedging strategies in the seasonal reproductive mode switches of aphids. The intended methods leave room for collaborative side-projects beyond the study question (e.g. molecular control of photoperiodism, or sharing aphid lines from throughout Europe), so this article might be of interest to anyone working with aphids. …”
