Phylogeny of locusts and grasshoppers reveals complex evolution of density-dependent phenotypic plasticity
Abstract Locusts are grasshoppers that can form dense migrating swarms through an extreme form of density-dependent phenotypic plasticity, known as locust phase polyphenism. We present a comprehensive phylogeny of the genus Schistocerca, which contains both non-swarming grasshoppers and swarming loc...
