Resource allocation to oocytes: heritable variation with altitude in Colias philodice eriphyle (Lepidoptera)

Abstract

This study tests the hypothesis that selection should result in a positive correlation between numbers of oocytes produced and available oviposition time, in order to avoid wasting nutrients through the formation of unused oocytes in Colias philodice eriphyle Edwards.
