Genomically correlated trait combinations and antagonistic selection contributing to counterintuitive genetic patterns of adaptive diapause divergence in Rhagoletis flies

McCall B. Calvert et al.

Summary: Adaptation to novel environments can lead to unexpected genomic responses to selection, as shown in the case of the apple and hawthorn host races of the Rhagoletis pomonella. Genetic correlations between two life history traits were generated by historical selection in the hawthorn host race across North America, with loci associated with these traits concentrated in regions of high linkage disequilibrium. The paradoxical genetic diversity observed in the apple flies is attributed to the pleiotropy or linkage of alleles associated with later adult emergence and increased initial diapause intensity, which were strongly selected for by the earlier phenology of apples.

Overwintering strategies and life-history traits of different populations of Aphidius platensis along a latitudinal gradient in Chile

Armando Alfaro-Tapia et al.

Summary: This study investigated the response of the aphid parasitoid Aphidius platensis to photoperiod and temperature in five Chilean populations. The results showed that none of the populations expressed diapause, suggesting that the environmental thresholds for diapause induction may not be reached in this species under the studied latitudes. However, there were differences in temperature among sites, and physiological and life-history traits could rapidly adjust through developmental thermal acclimation.

A unifying, eco-physiological framework for animal dormancy

Kathryn Wilsterman et al.

Summary: Animals across different taxonomic groups exhibit similar phenotypes during programmed dormancy in highly seasonal environments, but research on dormancy has been historically limited by phylogenetic barriers. A broad comparative approach could provide new insights into the evolution of programmed dormancy.

Cold tolerance, water balance, energetics, gas exchange, and diapause in overwintering brown marmorated stink bugs

John J. Ciancio et al.

Summary: Halyomorpha halys, an emerging pest in Ontario, overwinters as adults in anthropogenic structures. This study investigated seasonal variations in cold tolerance, water balance, and energetics of H. halys. The research found that overwintering H. halys are chill-susceptible, and those in sheltered habitats had a higher survival rate. Additionally, inducing diapause in laboratory-reared H. halys resulted in lower supercooling points and extended survival in desiccating conditions.

Snow modulates winter energy use and cold exposure across an elevation gradient in a montane ectotherm

Kevin T. Roberts et al.

Summary: Snow plays a crucial role in moderating vulnerability to winter climate change by insulating the soil from air temperature. Elevational gradients in snowy mountains can impact the performance and fitness of organisms overwintering in the soil. Declining snowpack may increase cold exposure for mid-elevation populations, while high elevation habitats may offer refuge in drier winters.

Dealing with predictable and unpredictable temperatures in a climate change context: the case of parasitoids and their hosts

Cecile Le Lann et al.

Summary: The study explores how ectotherm insects, such as parasitoids and their hosts, respond to variable and unpredictable temperature conditions through phenotypic plasticity and bet-hedging. It discusses the implications of fluctuating temperatures on population persistence, host-parasitoid interactions, and potential cascading effects on the food web. The review also proposes a roadmap for designing experiments to assess the adaptive strategies of plasticity and bet-hedging in response to fluctuating temperatures.

Costs of averting or prematurely terminating diapause associated with slow decline of metabolic rates at low temperature

Jantina Toxopeus et al.

Summary: The study showed that non- and post-diapause pupae can slowly achieve diapause-like metabolic rates when incubated at 4 degrees Celsius. While both diapause and quiescent pupae exhibited high tolerance of extreme low temperatures, quiescent pupae did not survive well when chilled for prolonged periods at 4 degrees Celsius.

Temporal resource partitioning mitigates interspecific competition and promotes coexistence among insect parasites

Glen Ray Hood et al.

Summary: The study reveals that temporal resource partitioning through variation in oviposition timing can mitigate interspecific competition between insect parasitoids sharing the same host, promoting species coexistence. By adjusting oviposition timing, inferior competitors can gain a survival advantage, with larger intervals between oviposition times helping alleviate competition. These findings suggest that temporal resource partitioning plays a critical role in facilitating species coexistence and structuring diverse insect communities.
