Local adaptation in the armored scale insect Pseudaulacaspis pentagona (Homoptera: Diaspididae).

INTRODUCTION

Phytophagous insects often exhibit patchy distributions both within and among their host plants. One possible explanation for this pattern is genetic variability in resistance to their host plants (Hare and Futuyma 1978, Hare 1980, Moran 1981, Wainhouse and Howell 1983, Whitham 1983, Service 1984, Berenbaum et al. 1986, Karban 1987, Maddox and Root 1987, Simms and Rausher 1987, Fritz 1990, Strauss 1990). Variation in resistance traits among host plants may promote genetic diversification in their herbivores (Mitter and Futuyma 1983, Futuyma and Peterson ...
