Phenotypic plasticity in chemical defence of butterflies allows usage of diverse host plants

Erika C. P. de Castro et al.

Summary: The Heliconius butterflies exhibit remarkable plasticity in their chemical defences, adjusting biosynthesis based on the cyanogenic compounds present in their host plants. This allows them to widen their range of potential hosts within the Passiflora genus while maintaining their chemical defences.
