Exploring the role of host specialisation and oxidative stress in interspecific lifespan variation in subtropical tephritid flies

In herbivorous insects, the degree of host specialisation may be one ecological factor that shapes lifespan. Because host specialists can only exploit a limited number of plants, their lifecycle should be synchronised with host phenology to allow reproduction when suitable hosts are available. For s...
