Abstract: Density-dependent phase polyphenism in locusts is one of the most extreme forms of phenotypic plasticity. Locusts exist along the continuum between two density-dependent phenotypes that differ in nymphal coloration, behavior, morphology, physiology, and reproduction among… read more here.

Abstract: Olfactory plasticity, which is one of the major characteristics of density-dependent phase polyphenism, plays critical roles in the large-scale aggregation formation of Locusta migratoria. It is still unknown whether odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) are involved in… read more here.
