(Submitter supplied) Predicting how climate change affects biotic interactions and their evolution poses a challenge. Plant-insect herbivore interactions are particularly sensitive to climate change, as climate-induced changes in plant quality cascade into the performance of insect herbivores. Whereas the immediate survival of herbivore individuals depends on plastic responses to climate change induced nutritional stress, long-term population persistence via evolutionary adaptation requires genetic variation for these responses. more...

(Submitter supplied) We have measured flight effect in gene expression using individual-based RNA-seq data from two regional populations of the Glanville fritillary butterfly (Melitaea cinxia). Largest number of differentially expressed genes were between populations (3840 genes) and between males and females (1622 genes). 801 genes had significant flight effect. Enriched GO and KEGG categories among these genes included hypoxia, glycolysis, and TCA cycle.

(Submitter supplied) We have compared allelic and gene expression variation using individual-based RNA-seq data from four regional populations of the Glanville fritillary butterfly (Melitaea cinxia) in northern Europe. Two of the populations represent fragmented habitat and two continuous habitat. Based on sequence information, we constructed genealogy for four populations. Based on gene expression, we found 1841 genes to be differentially expressed between two different landscape types. more...

(Submitter supplied) We combined heritability analysis of larval development rate with a global expression analysis of this phenotype to investigate genotype by environment interactions across three ecologically relevant temperatures in the Glanville fritillary butterfly (Melitaea cinxia). We focused upon the development of final instar caterpillars which is greatly affected by temperature, and during this stage the caterpillars build up most of the resources for adult life. more...

(Submitter supplied) Normalized cDNA from genetically diverse pools of larvae, pupae, and adults body parts, across multiple local populations in the Åland islands were used to de novo assemble a partial transcriptome of the Glanville Fritillary butterfly using 454 pyrosequencing. Probes were designed using Agilent eArray based on the assembled contigs and singletons (version 1). In addition some Sanger sequences and known genes were included in the probe design. more...
