Molecular analyses reveal consistent food web structure with elevation in rainforest Drosophila - parasitoid communities

C. T. Jeffs, J. C. D. Terry, M. Higgie, A. Jandova, H. Konvickova, J. J. Brown, C.-H. Lue, M. Schiffer, E. K. O'Brien, J. Bridle, J. Hrcek, O. T. Lewis

The paper builds Drosophila-parasitoid food webs across elevation gradients and finds no significant changes in network structure metrics despite environmental variation.

The spread of resistance to imidacloprid is restricted by thermotolerance in natural populations of Drosophila melanogaster

A. Fournier-Level, R. T. Good, S. Wilcox, R. V. Rane, M. Schiffer, W. Chen, P. Battlay, T. Perry, P. Batterham, A. A. Hoffmann, C. Robin

The study investigates imidacloprid resistance in Drosophila melanogaster across different temperatures and finds a polygenic basis with a trade-off against thermotolerance.
