Chromosomal polymorphism in Nucella lapillus.

abstract：:Differences in behaviour between individuals in populations living in different environments may result from evolution proceeding differently in each population. The parasitoid wasp Cotesia glomerata (L.) (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) parasitizes early instar larvae of butterflies in the family Pieridae. In the study area...
