Seasonal butterfly design: morphological plasticity among three developmental pathways relative to sex, flight and thermoregulation (2002, background): “Sexrelated differences in adaptive reaction norms for lifehistory traits in butterflies have been shown before (e.g. Fischer & Fiedler, 2000), but not for functional flightrelated morphological traits – other than size.”
Food and sex-specific growth strategies in a spider (2004, background): “Reversals in growth response during ontogeny as found here occur in other species as well (e.g. birds: Badyaev et al., 2001; insects: Klingenberg, 1998; Fischer and Fiedler, 2000, 2001) and demonstrate a high degree of developmental plasticity relating to the ontogeny of sexual size dimorphism.”
Geographic variation in body size, sexual size dimorphism and fitness components of a seed beetle: local adaptation versus phenotypic plasticity (2009, background): “…can vary considerably with environmental conditions due to a sex difference in plasticity of body size (Blanckenhorn 1997, Morin et al. 1999, Fischer and Fiedler 2000, 2001, Fairbairn 2005, Teder and Tammaru 2005, Bonduriansky 2007, Fernández-Montraveta and Moya-Laraño 2007, Gianoli et…”
