Impacts of Body Colour, Symbionts and Genomic Regions on the Pea Aphid Wing Plasticity VariationNARA Subscribed
Adaptive phenotypic plasticity describes the phenomenon in which a single genotype can produce a variety of phenotypes that match their environments. Like any trait, plasticity is a phenotype that can exhibit variation, but despite the ecological importance of plasticity variation, little is known about its genetic basis. Here we use the pea aphid to investigate the genetic basis of wing plasticity variation. Previous reports...
Evaluation of the convection-permitting regional climate model CNRM-AROME41t1 over Northwestern EuropeNARA Subscribed
Since a decade, convection-permitting regional climate models (CPRCM) have emerged showing promising results, especially in improving the simulation of precipitation extremes. In this article, the CPRCM CNRM-AROME developed at the Centre National de Recherches Météorologiques (CNRM) since a few years is described and evaluated using a 2.5-km 19-year long hindcast simulation over a large northwestern European domain using diffe...
Host and symbiont genetic determinants of nutritional phenotype in a natural population of the pea aphidNARA Subscribed
A defining feature of the nutritional ecology of plant sap‐feeding insects is that the dietary deficit of essential amino acids (EAAs) in plant sap is supplemented by EAA‐provisioning microbial symbionts in the insect. Here, we demonstrated substantial variation in the nutritional phenotype of 208 genotypes of the pea aphid Acyrthosiphon pisum collected from a natural population. Specifically, the genotypes varied in performan...
Crop models of crop growth are increasingly used to quantify the impact of global changes due to climate or crop management. Therefore, accuracy of simulation results is a major concern. Studies with ensembles of crop models can give valuable information about model accuracy and uncertainty, but such studies are difficult to organize and have only recently begun. We report on the largest ensemble study to date, of 27 wheat mod...
Population structure of the C hagas disease vector, T riatoma infestans, at the urban–rural interfaceNARA Subscribed
The increasing rate of biological invasions resulting from human transport or human‐mediated changes to the environment has had devastating ecological and public health consequences. The kissing bug, T riatoma infestans , has dispersed through the P eruvian city of A requipa. The biological invasion of this insect has resulted in a public health crisis, putting thousands of residents of this city at risk of infection by T rypa...
