Insect flight metabolic rate revealed by bolus injection of the stable isotope (13)C
Measuring metabolic rate (MR) poses a formidable challenge in free-flying insects who cannot breathe into masks or be trained to fly in controlled settings. Consequently, flight MR has been predominantly measured on hovering or tethered insects flying in closed systems. Stable isotopes such as label...
