Selection on olfactory response to semiochemicals from a plant-host complex in a parasitic wasp

Article Abstract:

Research has been conducted on olfactory perception of parasitic wasps. The hypothesis that selection has not affected the wasps' upwind flight ability and that the differences in flight response have resulted from the differentiation in olfactory perception has been tested, and the results are discussed.
