The price of safety : food deprivation in early life influences the efficacy of chemical defence in an aposematic moth
Burdfield-Steel, Emily; Brain, Morgan; Rojas Zuluaga, Bibiana; Mappes, Johanna (Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2019)Aposematism is the combination of a primary signal with a secondary defence that predators must learn to associate with one another. However, variation in the level of defence, both within and between species, is very ... -
Influence of colour, smell and taste on the survival of the wood tiger moth (Arctia plantaginis) adults during predation event
Lommi, Jenna (2021)Saalistajien torjumiseksi saalis voi käyttää erilaisia puolustusmekanismeja, jotka stimuloivat useita eri aisteja (ts. multimodaalista signalointia). Esimerkiksi aposemaattiset eliöt puolustautuvat varoitussignaalin lisäksi ... -
Predator-induced plasticity on the life-history and antipredator defenses of the aposematic wood tiger moth larva
Abondano Almeida, Diana (2017)Defense mechanisms in organisms evolve as a response of predator-prey interactions, reducing prey mortality. Flexibility in antipredator strategies due to heterogeneous environments can be explained by phenotypic ... -
How to fight multiple enemies : target-specific chemical defences in an aposematic moth
Rojas Zuluaga, Bibiana; Burdfield-Steel, Emily; Pakkanen, Hannu; Suisto, Kaisa; Maczka, Michael; Schulz, Stefan; Mappes, Johanna (The Royal Society Publishing, 2017)Animals have evolved different defensive strategies to survive predation, among which chemical defences are particularly widespread and diverse. Here we investigate the function of chemical defence diversity, hypothesizing ... -
Diet influences resource allocation in chemical defence but not melanin synthesis in an aposematic moth
Ottocento, Cristina; Rojas, Bibiana; Burdfield-Steel, Emily; Furlanetto, Miriam; Nokelainen, Ossi; Winters, Sandra; Mappes, Johanna (The Company of Biologists, 2024)For animals that synthesise their chemical compounds de novo, resources, particularly proteins, can influence investment in chemical defences and nitrogen-based wing colouration such as melanin. Competing for the same ...
